Banking (Civ6)

Banking is a Renaissance Era technology in Civilization VI. It can be hurried by discovering the Guilds civic.
== Strategy ==
With Banking, commerce is elevated to a new level. Individuals (and sometimes state entities) are now able to fund their enterprises ahead of time by borrowing money from a bank and repaying it later, after their business takes off. The Bank, a new building for the Commercial Hub, is unlocked, and with ways to borrow money for intensive mining operations, even Quarries now start earning money for their owners. The way is paved for the modern science of money.
Getting Banking requires a lot of work - you'll need to work your way around the central part of the tech tree. However, this is well worth it from an economic point of view: not only do you unlock a higher-tier commercial building (which in and of itself is worth more than its net contribution, thanks to the indirect bonus from Commercial City-States), but you also get yield from Quarries - one of the more widespread improvements in the game! This is especially useful to empires with lots of quarriable resources - their income will skyrocket all of a sudden. But any commercially oriented empires will greatly benefit from the Bank building, in addition to paving their way towards important techs in the Industrial Era.
