Selecting a Bank

Question 4 • POP Financial Math 26/27

Assume that you are going to open a checking account. You are examining different banks and banking accounts to choose a bank account for your needs. Which of the following statements should not be one of your reasons for examining different banks?

Answer
A
Being more informed leads to being better prepared to make financial decisions.
B
Bank E offers you a chocolate bar for filling out an application for checking and credit at the same time.
C
Banks could have charges that you do not know about until reading carefully.
D
You will become more aware of how well the banks meet your particular needs.

Explanation

A small free gift is not a sound reason to choose or compare checking accounts, especially when it is offered for applying for credit at the same time. Comparing banks helps you make informed financial decisions, uncover possible fees, and see which account meets your needs. Therefore, Bank E’s chocolate bar offer should not be one of your reasons.
