Business Services

This flashcard set is based on NCERT Class 11 Business Studies, Chapter 4: Business Services. The chapter explains the importance of services in supporting business activities and highlights how modern businesses depend on specialised services such as banking, insurance, communication, transportation, and warehousing. It also introduces the nature and characteristics of services and distinguishes them from goods.
 

The flashcards cover major concepts including the characteristics of services (intangibility, inconsistency, inseparability, inventory-less nature, and involvement), different types of services, banking and e-banking, functions and types of banks, insurance principles and policies, communication services, and warehousing facilities. Learners also study life, fire, and marine insurance along with their features and differences.

They gain practical knowledge of financial systems, risk protection mechanisms, digital payment systems, communication networks, and storage facilities, which are essential for understanding modern business operations and economic activities.
