Actually, router is bit more secure but not that much.
If you are using just one laptop or a PC on the other end, use software anti-virus, FW, and anti-spyware on that laptop or PC is sufficient.
Traffic between your laptop and your banks are encrypted through secure socket layer, NOT & NEVER by router or switch anyway.
So in short, getting router not necessary giving u much security. Yes, your switch might be seen on the Net if someone is scanning or probing.
But since you don't have a router or switch but just another port provided by your ISP, not much risk.
