Gerald Klein of University of London explains “bank” as “a body, corporate or not, that has been recognized by Bank of England under the Banking Act, 1987, to accept deposits as defined by that Act. In UK there is no statutory definition of a “bank or “banker”. Banks are called “financial intermediaries” because they invest or lend funds of depositors who themselves are unable to lend their funds, due to risk and other factors involved in direct lending. Banks assume the credit risk involved in direct lending to those who needs funds. They have expertise and abilities to manage such risks.
