commercial and multi/multiple banks

It's not completely clear whether these sort of banks should be called 'multi-banks' or 'multiple banks'.

See this previous Proz question:

commercial and investment banks

Acho que é isso.

A commercial bank is a type of financial intermediary and a type of bank. Commercial banking is also known as business banking. It is a bank that provides checking accounts, savings accounts, and money market accounts and that accepts time deposits.[1]
Commercial bank is the term used for a normal bank to distinguish it from an investment bank.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commercial_bank

An investment bank is a financial institution that raises capital, trades in securities and manages corporate mergers and acquisitions. Investment banks profit from companies and governments by raising money through issuing and selling securities in capital markets (both equity, debt) and insuring bonds (e.g. selling credit default swaps), as well as providing advice on transactions such as mergers and acquisitions. A majority of investment banks offer strategic advisory services for mergers, acquisitions, divestiture or other financial services for clients, such as the trading of derivatives, fixed income, foreign exchange, commodity, and equity securities.

Bancos múltiplos: ***São os bancos que operam, obrigatoriamente, carteiras de banco comercial ou de investimento simultaneamente.*** Outras carteiras disponíveis para operação: banco comercial, banco de investimento e/ou banco de desenvolvimento (neste caso, exclusivamente para bancos oficiais), sociedade de crédito imobiliário, sociedade de crédito, financiamento e investimento e sociedade de arrendamento mercantil (leasing).

Universal banks - A universal bank participates in many kinds of banking activities and is both a Commercial bank and an Investment bank.[1]

I don't think the term "multiple bank" is correct or even exists.
