Virtual banking

Banking from home is called virtual banking, because it allows transactions that bypass branches and ATMs; in the case of Internet banking, there is no need to contact a bank staff member.

Virtual banking has changed the way people bank in many ways. In the past, people opened a bank account when they first started work and stayed with that bank for their whole lives; now, it is much easier to move an account, mortgage or loan from one banking institution to another.

Many customers look at what other banks are offering and change their account if they find a better deal, so banks now have fewer loyal customers. It is common for credit card companies to entice new customers with offers such as zero per cent interest for the first six months.

Private banking


The term private bank is simply a marketing term for a bank or a division of a financial services company targeted towards wealthy individuals. Often it is used to describe specifically the lending services targeted towards this group, such as large margin loans.
