Intermediation in banking is the process of connecting borrowers and lenders in order to facilitate the exchange of funds. Banks act as intermediaries between the two parties, providing services such as loan origination, credit assessment, and loan servicing. Banks also provide liquidity to the market by providing short-term loans to borrowers. This helps to ensure that the market remains liquid and that borrowers have access to the funds they need. The intermediation market is an important part of the banking system, as it helps to ensure that funds are available to those who need them. It also helps to reduce the risk of default, as banks are able to assess the creditworthiness of borrowers before providing them with funds. Some of the companies in the intermediation market include JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, Wells Fargo, and Goldman Sachs. Show Less Read more
