I. Introduction and History.
The 'Banco Grandioso el Aristócrata del Puente' or 'The Grand del Puente Bank' in the common tongue, was established 126AC., in the province of Castro Carcel, Girobalda. The bank, unlike the merchant banks or burgher banks of the cities, served not only as a source of investment in business ventures but, also a safe haven for the coin of nobles and aristocrats alike. The Grand Bank presently funds private wars, projects of a grand magnitude, and provincial improvements in the lands of smaller Houses.
As the bank grew over the years of its existence, it has become more and more averse to funding the smaller projects of the common man, however, since the regency of the Reverend Julian del Puente over the bank's Regalian assets, a boom in smaller loans has taken place, often at low levels of interest and in a fair spirited manner. Since the Unionist Church has no specific scriptures condemning usury, House del Puente has often deemed that so long as they offer a fair trade, they may retain their sense of Unionist morality; none have shown this commitment better than Reverend Julian, in recent time.
II. Services.
Those with a deposit of 100Regals or more incur greater leniency on loans, including a lowering of interest by 2% Per Regals stored. (Regals held within the bank are strictly IG Regals - or, Noble Spreadsheet Regals)
Low-Interest Loans.
Loans are often provided by the bank for a number of reasons, and, most certainly if the money handed out can be claimed. A bill of exchange - a formal document, drawn up to add legality to the transaction, is signed by both the bank and the client. The client may bargain a reasonable deal and a time in which they may repay the loan. Thereafter, the client may spend the money as they choose, and, hopefully, make good on their contract.

Loans will be made in Regals from House del Puente's funds, and will usually be between The Grand Bank and another noble family. I.E, family A suffers damage to their holdings - they take a loan from The Grand Bank to repair, and, after the success and return of money, family A repays their loan in full.
Gold Exchange Contracts.
The Bank exchanges gold at the following rates:

1 Nugget: 1/2 Regal.
1 Ingot: 2 Regals.
1 Plate: 4 Regals.
1 Block: 6 Regals.

Such services are, however, only available to those who have deposited a sum of 100Regals or higher, within the bank's vaults. Such measures are to ensure that the goodwill of del Puente Banking c., is not misused by competitors.
