Task 1. Read and translate the text.
The financial system of a developed country is a network of financial institutions comprising organizations carrying out and regulating financial activities, the ministry of finance, the treasury, the central bank, the tax service, stock and currency exchanges.

Financial activities embrace budgeting, financing, investment, banking, taxation and insurance. Financial assets flow in the system from savers, who act as sources of funds, to borrowers, who use them. Savers and borrowers in the system are linked by financial intermediaries – banks, finance, investment and insurance companies. Banks occupy a central place in any financial system.

Banks play a very important role in any financial system. Most typically banks open accounts for their clients and receive money on current and deposit accounts. These funds are used by them to provide loans or for investment. Apart from these functions bankers perform many other functions of great value to their clients. Banks collect cheques, discount bills of exchange, transfer money, buy and sell securities for their clients, take charge of their clients’ valuables.

As a rule, commercial banks in a country are supervised by the central bank, which acts as the government’s banker. Among other functions central banks have the sole right to issue banknotes and to license retail banks.
