It's also helpful for the company to be sure that there are as few
opportunities as possible for even the employees to compromise security.

"And lead us not into temptation" . . .

As I see it, the holy grail of the banks should be to ensure that their
client's authentication credentials are never exposed to ANY of their
employees, to prevent the employees from attempting any fraud through
masquerading as the client.

I say holy grail, because there will almost always be opportunities, but one
should try to eliminate them wherever possible.
