Text 1: Definition of Financial Intermediaries

A financial intermediary is a financial institution such as bank, building society,
insurance company, and investment bank or pension fund.
A financial intermediary offers a service to help an individual/ firm to save or
borrow money. A financial intermediary helps to facilitate the different needs of
lenders and borrowers. For example, if you need to borrow £1,000 – you could try
to find an individual who wants to lend £1,000. But, this would be very time
consuming and you would find it difficult to know how reliable the lender was.
Therefore, rather than looking for individuals to borrow a sum, it is more efficient
to go to a bank (a financial intermediary) to borrow money. The bank raises funds
from people looking to deposit money, and so can afford to lend out to those
individuals who need it.

Text II: What is Frictional Unemployment?

With frictional unemployment taking place as people transition from one job to the
next, it is mostly temporary. Even though it is transient people prefer to avoid this
often short period of unemployment, so much so they search for a new job while
working in their current one, and switch from one to the other seamlessly.

Frictional unemployment is an indelible component of an economy. Additionally

movement from one job to another happens more often when the economy is
healthy. It also provides several benefits to an economy as companies can find
employees that are a better fit for a job, and have the right type of qualifications.
While frictional unemployment is always present, it decreases sharply when the
economy is in recession and the amount of jobs available is minimal. Healthy
economies that have low unemployment rates result in people spending less
amount of time without a job. They can therefore move to better paying jobs or
those that are a closer match to their skill set without going through a prolonged
frictional unemployment phase.
