Bilan d'une banque is a practical guide aimed at readers encountering a bank's balance sheet for the first time. Authored by Françoise Bussac and Martine Quinault, the book breaks down the components of banking financial statements into clear, accessible summaries. It explains how assets, liabilities, and equity are presented in a bank's report and what each section signifies for the institution's financial health. The guide is intended for students, professionals, or anyone needing a quick reference to interpret banking disclosures without requiring prior expertise in accounting. Published in December 2000 by La Revue Banque, the paperback edition includes the standard ISBN identifiers and is written in French. While the work does not delve into advanced theoretical models, it serves as a useful introductory tool for understanding the structure and meaning of bank balance sheets in a concise format.
