Thanks for all your inputs, guys. So it seems like none of the Android AVs has a special "module" for banking or something like that. That's what I thought anyway, I was just curious

Instead of getting an android av, money better spent would be on adguard premium which will at least protect from malicious connections by all apps including the browser plus some level of phishing protection.

Not sure what you're expecting an Android AV to do, but if you avoid dubious apps and only install the official bank apps from Google Play Store, you should be set.

Banking apps are generally protected by a personalised message (that you set), a 6 (or 8) digit PIN, or an option to use Fingerprint (if supported), and between switching apps you should be prompted for re-login.
