How it's used
Used almost exclusively in the context of banking and credit cards, this term is the standard way to refer to the periodic summary of account activity. While it is a formal document, the term itself is used freely in daily conversation when discussing personal finance or shopping habits. It is common to pair this with the verb 睇 to describe the act of reviewing one's financial status.
