RETAIL BANKING DEFINITION
Retail Banking - Definition
Retail Banking is the provision of general banking services directly to the public. These services include providing ATM Cards, Debit Cards, Credit Cards, Checking Accounts, Savings Accounts, Mortgage Loans, Personal Loans, and Certificates of Deposit. Retail Banking is also known as Commercial Banking or Consumer Banking or Personal Banking.
What is “Retail Banking”
Retail Banks deal directly with the general public. Retail Banking is also known as Commercial Banking or Personal Banking or Consumer Banking. Retail Banks have vast numbers of branches to give the public ready access to the Retail Bank. Commonly, banks that carry out Retail Banking also carry out other forms of banking, like Investment Banking. Retail Banks bring in deposits from their customers and in turn, they are enabled to extend loans. An example of a Retail bank is JP Morgan Chase.

Functions of Retail Banking
Retail Banks provide Deposit-Taking Services, extending Credit, and various forms of Money Management. The main types of deposits that these banks accept are Demand Deposit (Current Accounts), Savings Deposits, and Fixed Deposits (time-based deposits). Such Consumer Banks also enable transfers of money between individuals and business. They also increase and reduce the money supply when they advance loans or call in loans. These consumer banks attempt to be a one-stop-shop for individual retail banking clients. These banks are expanding their range of services offered to include Retirement Planning, Stock Brokerage, Wealth Management, and Private Banking. They often act as financial agents for insurance companies. These banks also may offer safekeeping facilities.
The credit that the Retail Banks extend to the public helps to drive the economy. Most banking consumers deal only with these retail banks and are rarely seen inside investment banks.
Top retail banks include JPMorgan, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs, Capital One, Barclays, Chase Bank, Citibank and Bank of America.
