Banking Standards Board

Okay kiddo, so you know how we go to the bank to keep our money safe and get it when we need it, right? Well, there are a lot of people who work at the bank and they have to make sure that they do things the right way and treat customers nicely.

That's where the banking standards board comes in. It's a group of important people who make rules for how banks should behave so that they don't do anything bad or hurt anyone.

Think of it like having a set of rules for how we behave at school or at home. It helps us get along with others and make sure everyone is treated fairly.

Now, the banking standards board also looks at how banks treat their customers and checks to make sure they are doing things the right way. They want to make sure that everyone is happy and safe when they go to the bank.

So, the next time you go to the bank, you can feel good knowing that the people in charge are following rules to make sure you are treated nicely and your money is safe.
