A liability account

Explanation:

Companies save their money and assets in the bank, and they can take them out whenever they want. For a company, that money is debited in their asset account. Likewise, banks, on the other hand, maintain a reciprocal account which is the liability account. They maintain a liability account because sooner or later they have to pay back that money to the client/customer.
