There are several ways e.g. it pays depositors x% but charges borrowers x+y%. The y% is the lending margin which represents profit to the bank. Additionally, as banks are only required to keep (say) 8% liquidity, each GBP1 deposit can be geared up (say) 12.5 times i.e. loans totalling GBP 12.50. The effect would be y% x 12.5x profit. Ofcourse this is a simplistic example. In reality, banks can gear up up to 100 times like RBS did at one time.
