    Answer: A. True

    B. True

    C. False

    Explanation:

    A. Both Mutual Savings Banks and Credit Unions are owned by the their depositors. Credit Unions are owned and operated by members for the purpose of creating banking services for themselves at a cheaper cost.

    Mutual Savings Banks are also owned by members who felt that traditional banks did not favour them.

    B. Demand Deposit accounts exist in both commercial banks and Credit Unions but with different names. In Commercial banks they are known as Checking accounts for the most part but Credit Unions call them Share Draft Accounts and members of the Union can use these accounts by writing drafts like Commercial banks allow cheques.

    C. While Credit Unions were formed usually for people in the same organisations or people with a common bond, Mutual Savings Banks were generally meant to uplift the lower economic classes so they did not share a common bond as Credit Union members do.
