Writing bank 1
E-mails can have a formal business style or a very informal style, similar to spoken English. This formal e-mail is similar to standard business letter, but usually it is shorter. The e-mail should begin with Dear … and finish with Best wishes or Best regards. You use this style if you are writing to somebody outside the company or someone you do not know well.
