[edit] Non-bank financial institution

Non-bank financial institution (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

The original article didn't appear to serve much purpose except to state that any financial institution that is not a bank is a non-bank financial institution. Not to be rude, but I don't think that meets notability requirements. Ecoleetage (talk) 01:44, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

* Transwiki to Wictionary if they want it, perhaps. It is more or less just a definition. Erechtheus (talk) 03:00, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

  • In light of improvements made, keep this article. Erechtheus (talk) 11:32, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge: Merge article with Financial institutions. Dwilso 03:34, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep: It seems that NBFI is a term of art, and I've found many references to it as being an important and somewhat well-defined sector of the economy. Please look at the article now - I think it is possible that it can be more than just a definition. Staeiou (talk) 10:28, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
The current article is not the article I marked with an AfD. In fact, it is completely different. I am removing my original Delete vote since the article has changed so dramatically. Ecoleetage (talk) 10:41, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Don't merge. Keep NBFI is a term of art, as has been shown above. The article has been vastly improved. Protonk (talk) 16:21, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
