I don’t know a lot about bank economics, but it’s not clear to me how they would have made much money. Interest rates are basically 0%, and they didn’t charge much in the way of fees.
I bank with Charles Schwab, which is very low cost in terms of fees, but I’m sure they make money by using my money in all sorts of trading shenanigans. (I feel somewhat guilty for contributing to the financialization of everything, but…no ATM fees, anywhere!)
