Presumably banks don't want you to shop around... In Australia, for
example, it's pretty cut-throat, with just four major banks owning most of
the market, and a lot of small ones (including credit unions etc) picking
up the crumbs.
The "Big Four" (as they're known) are fighting off a proposed Royal
Commission into their rapacious activities following some major scandals,
so I don't expect them to be exactly forthcoming about what they do.
