Balance Reporting
"A rose by any other name would smell just as sweet," or so Billy Shakespeare penned. Balance reporting by any other name is another form of an account statement. The balance report is a point-in-time report produced by the bank to inform the customer (be that an individual, business, or company) about the current balances in their accounts.
