You're conflating completely different kinds of security.

Banks are good at not losing money.

But website security is an afterthought for them.

It's easy to make a website that has better security practices than a typical bank website.

It's not about having better skills or resources, it's about having the motivation to do it in the first place.

A bank could set up spectacular security, but that doesn't mean they usually do so.
