BANKS: Financial intermediaries that function as depository institutions, maintaining deposits, making loans, and directly controlling the checkable deposits portion of the economy's money supply. As financial intermediaries, banks match up lenders and borrowers, using deposits for loans. However, banks are also responsible for maintaining liquid checkable deposits that are used as money for the economy. The generic term "banks" or "commercial banks" is used in reference to traditional banks, as well as checking-account issuing thrift institutions--credit unions, savings and loan associations, and mutual savings banks.

[What's This?]

Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time touring the new suburban shopping complex trying to buy either a hepa filter for your furnace or a wall poster commemorating next Thursday. Be on the lookout for vindictive digital clocks with revenge on their minds.
