单选题 Correspondent banking faces a problem of definition. Five years ago the business was preoccupied with electronic funds transfer. The spread of Swift's messaging network and the developing of the equally efficient clearing systems promised to elevate the medium through which banks communicate and fitted the traditional concept of correspondent banks talking to each other. By streamlining this function, however, the nature of the business changed and the importance of nurturing interbank relationships dwindled in the eyes of some correspondent bankers. Technology tends to lead to concentration, because the customer has gone to the bank that is bigger and faster, and can handle more volume, explains Ian Cormack, who heads Citicorp's financial institutions group in London and sits on the council of the clearing system in the UK. Moving or receiving money has always been at the heart of interbank activity. Lawrence Grand, international banking director at Barclays, makes the fundamental point that correspondent banking will always exist in a world where banks have to talk to other banks to conduct money transmissions. This view is shared at Manufacturers Hanover, where Joseph Long-aberdi, a banking vice president and senior representative, believes funds transfer business is still the major product over which correspondent banks wage battle. But while the need to balance interbank accounts remains a core function of the business, the complexion of the funds passing through the payments system has altered dramatically. The rise and rise of financial activity has displaced trade - related flows, particularly in the period after Big Bang, until today around 90 per cent of the business consists of financial transactions, estimates Mr. Cormack. Volumes continue to rise significantly in the major clearing centres, largely feeding off growth in securities processing and foreign exchange. The value of dollar - dominated transactions passing through New York's clearing house inter - bank payments system (Chips) increased by 23.7 percent last year to a daily average of $ 526 billion, equivalent to 126 840 transactions a day, and compared with $ 425 billion and 113 758 transactions in 1986. In London's sterling market the value of daily transactions passing through the clearing house automated payments system (Chaps) climbed by 28.5 percent in the year ending March 1988 to ￡45 billion, or 23 441 transactions a day, compared with ￡3 billion and 20 958 in the previous months. Keeping pace with growth has not been easy, particularly for the banks which for reasons of size, cost and strategy have been confined to a marginal role in the business. Commitment to the technological infrastructure is vital. Five years ago Manufacturers Hanover had 75 million invested in a worldwide telecommunications network. Anyone who baulked at such an investment five years ago would find it difficult to enter the market today.

单选题{{B}}Section One{{/B}} Directions: There are three passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Passage 1 Larger banks in large cities often specialize in particular ancillary services in addition to the bank deposit services they supply. They may have foreign branches in order to provide banking services in particular foreign countries. Large banks may sell consumer credit card services; that is, they allow individual banks to join their credit card network. They may be brokers in the federal funds markets, a market for short-term loans in which commercial banks participate. Banks may specialize in handling trust agreements. Large banks often provide many of these services for their depositors as well as selling these ancillary services to other banks. This provision of services to other banks is called correspondent banking. The degree of competition in the market for banking services may be related to the number of depository intermediaries in a particular locality. If there is one commercial bank and no thrifts in a small town in a remote area, most of the residents may deposit their funds in the local bank. If there are no financial intermediaries offering similar services, such as business loans, the local bank supplies most of these loans. In most areas, other financial intermediaries and nearby banks compete for loan business. Larger loans made to larger local businesses may not be supplied solely by banks in the local area. Unlike the cost of transporting physical property, the cost of transporting money by check is negligible. The capital market, the market for borrowing funds, cannot easily be subdivided by geographical areas. This consideration makes the measurement of competition for large-loan business in a given geographical area a difficult problem. However, in some states one or several bank holding companies own a significant number of banks in the state. This subject is discussed subsequently.
