From American Bankers Association (ABA), American Institute of Banking (AIB), Annual Percentage Rate (APR), and Annual Percentage Yield (APY), among others.

Thumbs up

This is a great guide for both beginners and advanced who have an interest in this industry. A good resource for those who want to get into the world of financing. I'm a loan agent for a mortgage company looking to expand into a business finance/investment banker. Throughout this guide, I was educated on the process. Many thanks, Mr. Herold.
