The first bank in the United States was the Bank of North America, established in 1781 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It was chartered by the Continental Congress and served as a model for future banks in the country. The bank played a crucial role in financing the American Revolution and stabilizing the post-war economy.

The first Bank of the United States was established by the U.S. Congress in 1791, largely due to the efforts of Alexander Hamilton, who was the Secretary of the Treasury at the time. Hamilton advocated for a national bank to stabilize and improve the nation's credit and to manage the government's finances. The bank operated until 1811 when its charter was not renewed, largely due to opposition from those who favored states' rights over federal power.
The first bank failure in the United States occurred in 1814 when the First Bank of the United States, established in 1791, failed to secure a renewal of its charter. The bank faced difficulties due to the War of 1812, which strained its resources and led to a loss of confidence. This failure highlighted the vulnerabilities in the banking system at that time and set the stage for future banking reforms.
Well, Hamilton and Washington created the first National Bank of the US.
