bank note

Definition 1

Paper currency of a country issued by its central bank. Also called currency note.

Definition 2

Unsecured, interest bearing, payable on demand promissory note issued by a bank in large denominations ($100,000 and above). Bank notes are similar to bonds and, like a certificate of deposit (CD), may be used as a cash equivalent. They, however, are not protected under deposit insurance.
