In banking, the term national bank carries several meanings:

  • especially in developing countries, a bank owned by the state
  • an ordinary private bank which operates nationally (as opposed to regionally or locally or even internationally)
  • in the United States, an ordinary private bank operating within a specific regulatory structure, which may or may not operate nationally, under the supervision of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.
