If they can log in to your financial sites, a breach would mean the attacker would be able to as well.

As an added bonus, banks may disclaim liability because you shared your credentials with a third party.

That's a good (although bad for the consumer) point. Are you aware of any examples of this happening?

Reading my terms of service I can see my bank explicitly having forbidden the sharing of credentials.

Not sure if there ever was a case they used this clause, though.
