The idea of a national bank in the United States was primarily championed by Alexander Hamilton, the first Secretary of the Treasury. He proposed the establishment of the First Bank of the United States in 1791 to stabilize the nation's economy, provide a uniform currency, and facilitate government financing. Hamilton's vision emphasized the importance of a centralized financial institution to support economic growth and manage public debt.
