29、nce sheet refers to a single point in time, for example, the close of business on December 31. Taken by itself, a balance sheet does not show (63) over time.

The correspondent banks are paid indirectly, in the form of income from

32、 deposit balances maintained by its bank customers, as well as by direct money payments. Small banks may have 5 or 6 correspondent banks, which provide many services: bookkeeping services (especially those that require large computers); assistance in the sale or purchase of assets (including the con

33、solidation of purchases with other buyers); and the provision of information about capital markets (including the sale of equity shares in their banks). Large banks may have as many as 30 correspondent banks that provide services and representation in other localities (including foreign countries) a

34、nd specialized services that the correspondents can offer at a smaller cost. Until 1981 the Federal Reserve had provided free check-clearing facilities to its members, but nonmember banks relied entirely on correspondent banks to clear their checks. The correspondent banks often clear nonmember bank

35、s checks through the Federal Reserve. In 1979, the Federal Reserve cleared 32 billion checks, totaling $ 35 trillion. The total amount of cheeks debited against all insured banks in October 1982 was $ 93.5 trillion, of which 42 percent was from New York banks. Private clearing houses owned by groups

36、 of banks handled a large amount and so did the Federal Reserve, which began charging for that service. 51 The correspondent bank can only make money for its services to other banks from deposit balances maintained by bank customers. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Doesnt say 52 A correspondent bank may

39、sk or the failure of a counter-party to perform according to a contractual arrangement. This risk applies not only to loans but also to other on-and-off balance sheet exposures such as guarantees, acceptances and securities investments. Serious banking problems have arisen from the failure of banks

40、to recognize impaired assets, to create reserves for writing off these assets, and to suspend recognition of interest income when appropriate. 55 “Balance Sheet“ means the statement on which a banks assets and liabilities are listed. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Doesnt say 56 The word “exposures“ in t

41、his paragraph can be understood as “risks“. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Doesnt say 57 Reserves for writing off impaired assets are unnecessary. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Doesnt say 57 Foreign exchange is by definition foreign to the holder; otherwise, it would be domestic exchange or in modem practi

42、ce, local currency and legal tender. Foreign exchange typically is not legal tender and is therefore not acceptable in exchange for goods and services to whom it is being offered; hence, the desire to exchange it into something closer to home in terms of acceptability. Foreign exchange markets are n

43、early always markets that convert issues of foreign money for local units. The New York foreign exchange market, for example, is essentially a market for exchange foreign currencies against the US dollar. It is possible in New York to exchange French francs for Swedish kronor, but the normal practic

44、e would be to sell French francs for U.S. as a first step and then to sell US dollars and buy Swedish kronor as a second step in order to complete the transaction.

47、f finance for foreign trade where required. The credit created, in general, favors the exporter. In order to reduce the possible risk, the exporter usually insists on the buyer establishing a credit in his favor before shipment is unloaded. There are generally several types of credits. A “confirmed

48、credit“ guarantees payment to the beneficiary, provided that the credit terms and conditions are met and the standing of the advising bank in the beneficiarys country is sound. A “revocable credit“ may be cancelled at any time up to the moment the advising bank pays. This type of credit is the least

49、 favorable to the exporter. There is a risk that the goods may be shipped, and the credit revoked before documents are presented to the advising bank. An “irrevocable credit“ may not be cancelled or even amended without the consent of all the parties involved. This type of credit guarantees that no single party will revoke the contract already signed. With the credit arrangement, the issuing bank agrees to pay the advising bank, and the advising bank pays the exporter according to the terms of the docume
