A Structural view of U.S. bank holding companies

Dafna Avraham, Patricia Selvaggi and James Vickery ()

Economic Policy Review, 2012, issue 07, 65-81

Abstract: Large banking organizations in the United States are generally organized according to a bank holding company (BHC) structure. In this article, we describe the organizational structure of large U.S. bank holding companies and present summary statistics that document the increasing size, complexity, and diversity of these organizations. We also outline the different types of regulatory data filed with the Federal Reserve by U.S. bank holding companies and describe the strengths and weaknesses of these data, as a source for researchers and others interested in these organizations.
