I was surprised when I learned that - in accounting terminology - a “bank deposit” is a “liability” to the bank, and by the same token, an “outstanding loan” is an “asset.”

The best part is that every time they make a loan they have more “assets” which means they can make another loan based on that increase in “assets”.
