Two main distinctive characteristics between the international banks and the domestic banks are types of deposits they admit and loans and investments they make. Large international banks both lend and borrow in Eurocurrency market. Furthermore, depending on regulations of country in which it operates and its organizational type, the international bank can participate within the underwriting of Eurobonds and the foreign bonds.  In United States, only the investment banks and companies holding their investment banking operations are permitted to participate within the underwriting of the international bonds.
International banks consecutively grant consulting services and also advice to their clients within the areas of exchange hedging strategies, currency swap financing and interest rate, and international cash management services. All international banks do not supply all the services.  Banks which do grant majority of these services are termed as full service banks or universal banks.
