That's what I don't understand about banks.

On 99% of all websites I can use special characters in my passwords. The only exception are my online banking sites, where I'm forced to restrict myself to [\d\w] one one of the sites and to [\d] on the other site.



Government's security regulations that banks must follow make banks less agile. That in turn make banks security system weaker.

These are unfortunate unintended consequences.
