Mexico City, Nov 13 (EFE).- Aiming to make accessing finanicial services “as easy as going to the supermarket,” the Mexican subsidiary of U.S. retailing titan Wal-Mart opened bank branches at four of its stores.
Wal-Mart de Mexico plans to have a score of branches operating by the end of this year and to open another 60 in 2008, the firm said in a press release.
“We want to give access to bank services to customers and associates (store employees) who today lack the benefits of counting on available credit and a banking history to fulfill their desires,” Banco Wal-Mart Chairman Eduardo Solorzano said.

Resiemercial- A residential practitioner that also crosses the lines into commercial real estate.
Ok, first let me say there is no law stating if you hold a real estate license you can not practise commercial real estate and the license is a “blank” license covering any sale, lease, and now exchange of real estate. However, the only real similarity of residential and commercial real estate is the term real estate. Thus brings us the birth of the “resiemercial”.
