Banks make money by lending money to people and charging people for borrowing. The amount banks charge is called interest. Banks borrow money from other people and pay them interest on the amount borrowed. Banks charge more interest on the money they lend than they pay one the money they borrow. That is how they make money. When people deposit money with a bank, the bank is literally borrowing money from some people so they can lend it to other people. That is why banks pay interest.

The banks loan out the money on deposit at higher rates of interest than they pay the depositors. Since most people keep their savings on deposit for long periods, the banks are able to do this. If everyone came at once and asked for their money, the bank would fail.
Loans & of course they earn interest on it.

There are two main reasons as to why people would save their money in a financial institution like a bank. They are: a. For safekeeping. Keeping a lot of money at home is not safe whereas banks and their vaults are very safe b. To earn an interest - Banks pay us an interest for having us deposit our money with them. This is an added incentive for people to park their savings with banks.

People are the banks source of income. Basically people deposit their money into the bank and then the bank uses it. To make money, the banks then lend what they have to people so that they can buy a house (home lone). The people using the lent money must repay it over a period of time with addition to an interest payment. Therefore they end up paying back more than the lent in the first place, so the banks make money. So the banks need people.
