And if you want the rest of the data in the rows:

SELECT b.*
FROM bank_account b
JOIN (
SELECT max(transaction_id) AS transaction_id
FROM bank_account
GROUP BY customer_id
) AS subselect ON subselect.transaction_id=b.transaction_id
;

I use a similar query here at work to find the first time a guy has visited
our site through an advertiser.
