It's not very tricky at all. A random sampling of citizens are asked if they experienced violent crime (including instances not reported to police), and if so, to describe the offender (ethnicity being just one component).[1]

Year after year the random samples of victimization correlates with arrest rate by ethnicity.

I wonder if any of those surveyed included banking crimes in their list that affected them.

It’s a survey of violent crime. So if by banking crime you mean getting mugged, yes, but if you mean a guy from India calling your grandma and saying he’s the IRS and needs her banking info, then no.
