3.0 out of 5 stars Basic Banking, March 25, 2000
I purchased this book to gain a better understanding of the industry as a whole. It served it's purpose! I am new to working in banking and I will have to learn how my bank operates, but now I can ask the right questions to speed up the process.

4.0 out of 5 stars Foundation for Banking by Jameson Thottam, September 11, 2005
This review is from: Business Banking (Paperback)
This is a starting foundation for entering banking (specifically when I joined IndyMac Bank). When I joined retail banking (previously only having worked in Investment Banking at Morgan Stanley) I was able to expand my knowledge on various areas of the retail banking beyond just what I-Banking had taught (e.g.,, valuation, SEC II & SEC III stat techniques, tax implications and flippying and insider trading tips of how to find/negotiate the best properties).

I would highly recommend this book to others in this field.

4.0 out of 5 stars Basic introduction to banking, April 30, 2002
By "wongmyh" (Canada) - See all my reviews
Includes a lot of information about banking but not in much detail. A handy reference afterall. But for the folks who want more in depth knowledge into banking, go for a larger volume.
