The sky isn't falling, the sky isn't falling
Article Abstract:
Banks were initially seen as being major factor for enforcing Y2K compliance among loan customers. However, recent events show that banks have become one of the friendlier creditors when speaking of Y2K readiness. Although banks are pressured to ensure Y2K compliance among clients much of their inquiries about preparedness have been very cordial and free of threat. This laxity is due to a view that most corporations are Y2K prepared and that banks continue to remain highly competitive and able to quickly solve any computer-related problems.

Article Abstract:
Corporate treasurers believe that the bank relationship should be extended to all financial areas. This is true in the face of bank consolidations and banks' growing demand for larger relationships with clients. Banks also push for a broader-based relationship other than merely providing loans. For their part, companies should determine bank services in certain kinds of transactions, in cases where all firm requirements are financed with banks.
