Tables are similar to HTML so you just need to be careful.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<banks>
<bank id="1">
<name>Bank Of America</name>
<address>USA</address>
<curr>US Dollars</curr>
</bank>
<bank id="4">
<name>Singapre bank</name>
<swiftid>444444</swiftid>
<curr>Singapore Dollars</curr>
</applicantbank>
</banks>
Use a for each within your XSL FO file \
<xsl:for-each select="banks">
<fo:table width="100%"
space-before.optimum="1pt" space-after.optimum="2pt">
<fo:table-column />
<fo:table-column />
<fo:table-column />
<fo:table-column />
<fo:table-header>
<fo:table-row
background-color="#C0C0C0">
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block>name</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block>address</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block>currency</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</fo:table-header>
<fo:table-body>
<xsl:for-each select="bank">
<fo:table-row>
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block>
<xsl:for-each
select="name">
<xsl:apply-templates
/>
</xsl:for-each>
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block>
<xsl:for-each
select="address">
<xsl:apply-templates
/>
</xsl:for-each>
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block>
<xsl:for-each
select="curr">
<xsl:apply-templates
/>
</xsl:for-each>
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</xsl:for-each>
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>
</xsl:for-each>
