What do banks do?
Put simply, banks provide services for people or organisations who want to borrow, lend and invest money. They are huge, complex organisations that play a part in the lives of people in every corner of the world, with clients ranging from individuals to businesses, and even the governments and central banks of entire countries.
Where could you fit in?
Banks work with vast amounts of money, every single day. But it’s a common misconception that you need to be a financial prodigy to work at one: just as important are regulatory experts, who make sure that institutions comply with the law in every country where they do business. And there’s a broad range of other specialists, from HR and finance to technology.
