Dictionaries and Encyclopedias

This chapter discusses about dictionaries and encyclopedias. Reference material in the form of dictionaries and encyclopedias provide an important source of information whenever definitions of terms or a concise explanation of practice are found necessary. Banking and finance are international in scope and it is essential to have adequate sources of information regarding the translation of terms and practice in other countries. Multilingual dictionaries are represented by a number of varied publications and those considered essential necessarily depend on the ramifications and interests of the individual and the organization.
