Financial system

The financial system is a mechanism for transferring fund from one unit to other unit. There exist two unit in financial system. They are:
(1)Surplus unit: It is the household sector. There prevails excess amount of money
(2)Deficit unit: It is business sector. This sector always needs of fund
(3)Financial intermediaries: Financial intermediaries are those via in a financial system which transfer fund from surplus sector as a loan in the deficit sector. Financial intermediaries includes: Bank, Financial institutions.
          
From the above diagram we can see that the financial intermediaries firstly collect funds from the surplus unit as deposit and then they provides loan to the deficit sector. From the deficit sector the profit again goes to the surplus sector in the case of buying goods or services. The profit portion again goes to the financial intermediaries as a saving then again the financial intermediaries transfer the fund to the deficit sector as a loan. This process replies back in forth.
