The security implications are probably far more complex than you
think. Most of the banks in the US out-source their online banking
services to a company called Digital Insight. I met the CTO of
Digital Insight a few months ago and discussed these very issues as
they relate to e-commerce. They might be able to help you out:

In case you are wondering, I have no personal, professional, or
financial interest in Digital Insight. I just thought their CTO was
sharp.
