CONT

Chaque jour, les banques essaient d'équilibrer le mieux possible le total des crédits et des débits de leurs comptes, afin d'éviter que leur compte de compensation à la Banque du Canada n'affiche un solde positif, qui ne rapporte aucun intérêt, ou un solde négatif, qui leur coûte des frais d'intérêt.
