Reason And Liberty

Banking allows both for the safe storage of money (sometimes with interest) and also coordination of the market for loanable funds.

What banks do is accept money from people who want to save the money and find people who want to borrow the money. This is essential in a modern economy - it allows for investment, which in turn increases capital accumulation, productivity, and standard of living.
