The Second Bank of the United States was established in 1816, following the expiration of the charter for the First Bank of the United States. It served as a central bank, regulating currency and credit and providing a stable financial system. Its charter lasted until 1836, when it was dissolved amid political opposition, particularly from President Andrew Jackson, who viewed it as a symbol of elite privilege. The bank played a crucial role in the economic development of the early 19th century but faced significant controversy and challenges during its existence.
