The English Commercial Banks
The English commercial banks have branches in all the major towns and a similar structure and mode of working is common to them all. The owners are the shareholders. At the outset they provide the necessary capital. They are all organised on the joint stock principle and are registered public companies.
The Chairman and Board of Directors are elected by the ordinary shareholders at the Annual General Meeting and are responsible for the efficient management of the bank. The Board is concerned with the overall policy of the bank and the major decisions which put that policy into effect.
The Board will appoint a Managing Director who is directly responsible to them and a member of the Board. They will also appoint the most senior executives who in turn appoint the rest of the clerical staff who will be responsible in different capacities for the day to day running of the bank.
The essence of a bank's activities is the collection of deposits through current accounts and deposit accounts and the use of these funds to provide loans or funds for investment. The current account is the one commonly held and is drawn upon by cheques and standing orders. The deposit account is more in the nature of a savings account. The pattern of investments which a bank decides upon is crucial because, on the one hand, the bank must use the funds wisely to make a profit and, on the other, funds must be available for depositors to withdraw when they wish to do so.
At the end of each business year the Directors recommend and the Annual General Meeting decides how much of the profit should be distributed to the shareholders as dividend, and how much should be retained in the business. In preparation for the Annual General Meeting, a bank publishes its Report and Accounts. These must be sent to every shareholder and are also available for anyone with an interest in the affairs of the bank. From the published accounts shareholders can easily determine the total profits the bank has earned and how much is available for distribution.

Financial Statements
The two main types of financial statements are the balance sheet and the income statement (profit and loss account).
The balance sheet lists a firm's assets, liabilities and owner’s equity at a point of time.
Changes in the balance sheet are made according to the principle of double-entry bookkeeping. This principle made its appearance in the 13th century in Northern Italy. It was improved and disseminated at the end of the 14th century by the work of Luca Pacioli, a monk and a university teacher. This principle states that each transaction must be recorded on the balance sheet as two separate entries so that the accounting equation will hold at all times, the totals of each side will always equal one another, and that this will always be true no matter how many transactions are entered into.
Balance sheets are drawn up periodically: monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, annually. There is an account for every asset, every liability and capital. Each account should be shown on a separate page.
The double entry system divides each page into two halves. The left-hand side is called the debit side while the right-hand side is called the credit side.
The balance sheet shows a lot of useful financial information, but it does not show everything. A firm’s sales, costs, and profits for a given period are shown in an income statement.
