Answer:
Credit union.
Explanation:
A credit union can be defined as a non-profit making financial cooperative that is typically controlled by its members (employees, church groups, labour unions etc) and it is saddled with the responsibility of providing financial services like the traditional banks to employees such as teachers, educators, nurses, etc.
Generally, the profit made from the amount of money that is being deposited by the members of a credit union are usually returned to the members as a form of better interest rates. Some examples of credit unions are SchoolsFirst Credit Union, New York University Federal Credit Union, Consumers Credit Union, etc.
In this scenario, a financial institution advertises itself as especially oriented towards educators and teachers.

The reserve ratio is the portion of the money of the depositor that should be available in cash in the bank. This amount should only be in the bank and not used for all other purposes. Hence, the balance money can be used for the bank operations, increasing the supply.
In this item, we are given that the reserve ratio is only 5%. This means that, 95% of the money can be used by the bank for its operation. This amount can be calculated by multiplying the amount deposited by the decimal equivalent of 95%. That is,
= ($1000)(0.95)
= $950
Therefore, the money supply will increase by $950.

Specialization is about an <em>invidivual</em> focusing on very specific tasks that are best suited to them according to their skills and knowledge.

The idea is to let workers be <em>specialists</em> in a small amout of tasks so that they can be more efficient and overall productivity can be greatly increased. This concept was introduced by the <u>'father of economics'</u> Adam Smith in his book "The Wealth of Nations" released in 1776.
