Here are some details about the relations:

  • Relation "client" describes the characteristics of people who can manipulate with accounts. One client can have multiple accounts.
  • Relation "disposition" links related clients and accounts. Multiple clients can manipulate with a single account.
  • Relations "loan" and "credit card" describe some services which the bank offers to its clients; more credit cards can be issued to an account, at most one loan can be granted for an account.
  • Relation "demographic data" gives some publicly available information about the districts (e.g. the unemployment rate); additional information about the clients can be deduced from this.

For more details about the relations and the attribute descriptions, please refer to the pdf document (case_study_extended.pdf).

Other questions that can help improve business:

  • What percentage of accounts have more than one client accessing the account? The disposition table, type column.
  • How much of the cards’ information is available in this database, and what are the different kinds of cards offered by the bank?
  • Where are most of the customers located (district)?
