I-Course Description
Accounting in banks differs from that of traditional companies essentially by this characteristic.
In other structures, the accounting entry is the prerogative of the accountants alone. In banks

carried out by the department that initiates it. The accounting department essentially plays the
role of control and validates the entries recorded.
