Banks should have the options to set minimal balances & maintenance fees.

Minimum Balance:
- No minimum or upto 50% of Max account size

Maintenance Fees:
-Flexible to banks needs
-Options could include:
a)Scheduled Set Fee (Daily/Weekly/Bi-Weekly/Monthly)
b)Minimum Balance Fee (Accounts below minimum balance)
c)Maximum Fee Amounts could not exceed 1000gc per day

maintenance fees?
i am killing braincells to see how i can get more profitable loans directed to me so that i can offer interest on gc parked in my bank.

It's optional. You wouldn't need to implement them. And the fees would be small like nothing more than 1000gc per day. I myself am looking at how to provide a return on accounts via interest. I may have a suggestion that will allow bankers to do it automatically.

this will never work unless you make it a requirement for all banks. i would simply not store gc in a bank that charges me for it.

then comes the issue of minimum deposit. what happens if i have 35m in a bank that has minimum deposit set to 50% and holds 50m, and i want to withdraw 15m? am i not allowed? does this also mean i can only have 25m+ or nothing?

this is a definite -1 from me

It would work like a bank does in the real world. If your balance is below the minimum you are charged a "Maintenance Fee". It doesn't prevent you from using the bank or having a balance below the minimum. It just provides an additional means for banks to earn gc.

I'm also working out a suggestion that would allow bankers to setup accounts to earn interest.

Disapproved

In general, do not attempt complex suggestion without first going through the discussion topic.
I usually simply move such to game discussion but I won't do this for this topic as it's not like it is anything new and I do not see it ever being implemented; mostly because it would encourage the creation of a bank for personal coffer, something we want to discourage.

There may be a wish for an option to delete bank accounts that's not in use.
