Unker see many people title Directors and VPs or even SVPs in commercial and investment banks.

Are they high level people?

not really

Of course, every bank branch need One Director, Two Sexytary, Mutiple Managers and one intern.

yes

I thought vp is like manager and avp is assistant manager for banks

VP no, just kuli.

Directors in Bank then yes, are usually SVP and above.

Director- Manager
VP- AM
AVP- Senior Exec

Depends on banks, there are a few thousands VP in JP Morgan, most are just title only.
Analyst (0-2 years)
Associate (2-5 years or 0-3 years with an MBA)
VP (5+ years or 3+ with an MBA)

Where you pluck this info from?

Vice President in US banks doesn't mean anything but just senior person only; don't be misguided that they are 2nd most powerful in company or department.

How about Heads and Directors? I see many oso.

How about maresian banks? I see many entry levels are already called AVP, and they become VP in 3 years.

Not sure about that. If you see many, then most probably it’s just a syok sendiri title to make their employees happy.

Directors, I only know BoD.

Some malaysian banks follow US style. So you’ll see a lot of VPs and AVPs. SEVP is the real high rank one normally reporting to COO.

This wasn't Malaysian practice in the past, the way you described it I would believe it is just empty title they follow like US.
You just need 5 year plus experience or 3 year plus MBA, like I said there is a few thousands Vice President of JP Morgan running around, none of them are big shots.
