Introduction

An account statement or bank statement is a summary of financial transactions which have occurred over a given period on a bank account held by a person or business with a financial institution.

These statements have historically been and continue to be typically printed on one or several pieces of paper and either mailed directly to the account holder or kept at the financial institution's local branch for pick up.
