Banking Institutions are traditional financial entities that provide services such as deposit-taking, lending, and payment processing. These organizations operate under strict regulatory oversight, aiming to maintain financial stability and protect consumer assets. Their operations form the backbone of conventional economic systems, facilitating capital flow and credit provision for individuals and businesses. They function as central intermediaries, connecting diverse financial activities within a regulated structure.
