Banks Don’t Make Money the Way You Think

Описание: Most people believe banks work like simple intermediaries.

You deposit money.
The bank lends it to someone else.
They charge more interest than they pay you.
And the difference becomes profit.

It sounds logical.

But modern banking systems don’t actually work that way.

Banks don’t simply move money.
They create it.

In this video, we break down the real mechanics behind how banks make money — from balance sheet expansion to interest spreads, fees, capital requirements, and risk management.

You’ll see why banks are not just financial intermediaries, but central nodes in the monetary system.

Understanding this changes how you see credit, money creation, and the structure of the financial system itself.
