Bank Statement

  

Banking at its most rudimentary. Or in other terms: "Here's what we have that's yours!"

A bank statement is a point-in-time accounting of the balance of a bank account (checking and/or savings) which shows the previous account balance, a summary of financial transactions which have occurred over a given period (usually a month) and the final balance of the account. The owner of the bank account can be a person, institution, business, or other legal entity.
