When the banker accepts deposits from the customer then the bank becomes the debtor and the customer is the creditor. If a customer takes loans from a bank then the customer becomes a debtor and the banks becomes a creditor.
2. Pledger and Pledgee relationship:–
when customer pledges (promises) certain assets or security with the bank in order to get a loan.
In this case, the customer becomes the Pledger, and the bank becomes the Pledgee. Under this agreement, the assets or security will remain with the bank until a customer repays the loan.
3. Licensor (Lessor) and Licensee (Lessee) relationship:-
The relationship between banker and customer can be that of a Licensor and Licensee. This happens when the banker gives a sale deposit locker to the customer. So, the banker will become the Licensor, and the customer will become the Licensee.
4. Relationship of Trustee and Beneficiary:- A trustee holds property for the beneficiary, and the profit earned from this property belongs to the beneficiary.
If the customer deposits securities or valuables with the banker for safe custody, the banker becomes a trustee of his customer. The customer is the beneficiary so the ownership remains with the customer.

5. Relationship of Bailor and Bailee:-
The relationship between banker and customer can be that of Bailor and Bailee.
A bailment is a contract for delivering goods by one party to another to be held in trust for a specific period and returned when the purpose is ended.
Bailor is the party that delivers property to another.
Bailee is the party to whom the property is delivered.
So, when a customer gives a sealed box to the bank for safekeeping, the customer became the bailor, and the bank became the bailee.
