All Rights Reserved How Banking Services Fit within Your Financial Plan (2 of 4) EXHIBIT 5.7 How Banking Services Fit Within Stephanie Spratt’s Financial Plan GOALS FOR BANKING SERVICES 1. Identify the most important banking services. 2. Determine which financial institution will provide me with the best banking services. ANALYSIS CharacteristicHow It Affects Me Interest rate offered on depositsThis will affect the amount of interest income I earn on deposits. Interest rate charged on mortgagesI could use the same financial institution if I buy a home in the future. Interest rate charged on personal loans I could use the same financial institution if I obtain a personal loan in the future. Fees charged for checking servicesI will be writing many checks, so I would prefer not to pay fees on a checking account if I maintain the minimum balance. LocationThe ideal financial institution would have a branch near my apartment building and near where I work. Online and mobile services availableThis would make my banking more convenient. ATMsCheck locations for convenience and whether any fees are charged for using ATMs.

All Rights Reserved How Banking Services Fit within Your Financial Plan (3 of 4) EXHIBIT 5.7 How Banking Services Fit Within Stephanie Spratt’s Financial Plan DECISIONS Decision Regarding Important Characteristics of a Financial Institution: My most important banking service is the checking account because I will write many checks every month. I prefer a bank that does not charge fees for check writing if I maintain a minimum balance. I also value convenience, which I measure by the location of the financial institution’s branches, and its online and mobile banking services. I would prefer a financial institution that offers reasonable rates on its deposit accounts, but convenience is more important to me than the deposit rate.

All Rights Reserved How Banking Services Fit within Your Financial Plan (4 of 4) EXHIBIT 5.7 How Banking Services Fit Within Stephanie Spratt’s Financial Plan Decision Regarding the Optimal Financial Institution: After screening financial institutions according to my criteria, I found three financial institutions that are desirable. I selected Quality Savings, Inc. because it does not charge for check writing if I maintain a minimum balance, has branches in convenient locations, and offers online and mobile banking. It also pays relatively high interest rates on its deposits and charges relatively low interest rates (compared to other financial institutions) on its loans. I may consider obtaining a mortgage there someday if I buy a home, as its mortgage rate was comparable to those of other financial institutions.
