看下面这句话
Bills of exchange contributed to the development of banks, as exchangers began to provide loans. Not until the eighteenth century, however, did such banks as the Bank of Amsterdam and the Bank of England begin to provide capital for business investment. Their principal function was to provide funds for the state.
题目问：until 18 century, 谁的function 是 provide capital for the state
答案是banks
我觉得不大对。原文说not until 18C,银行开始提供资本，也就是18C后银行才开始提供资本。
问题问的是until 18C,谁提供资金，即18C之前谁提供资本。为什么选bank呢？

18世纪，银行才开始为商业投资提供资本，之前主要为国家提供基金。
such banks did not provide capital for business investment until the eighteenth century.

until ,till和not untill有什么区别？
