Bank of Italy (United States)
The Bank of Italy was founded in San Francisco, California, United States, on October 17, 1904
The bank was established to serve working class citizens of the area, especially Italian Americans living in San Francisco's North Beach neighborhood.

The Bank of Italy building — which later became a National Historic Landmark—was opened in 1908.
Giannini had his office space in an open area on the first floor.
In 1909, the bank began opening branches in other cities, beginning with San Jose.
It had 24 branches by 1918, at which time it was the first statewide branch banking system.
The Bank of Italy merged with the smaller Bank of America, Los Angeles in 1928.
In 1930, Giannini changed the name" Bank of Italy" to" Bank of America".
As chairman of the new, larger Bank of America, Giannini expanded the bank throughout his tenure, which continued until his death in 1949.
Amadeo Giannini and the Bank of Italy were the basis for the classic 1932 Frank Capra movie" American Madness", from the original screenplay" Faith" by Robert Riskin.
Bank of America merged with NationsBank of Charlotte, North Carolina, in 1998.
While NationsBank was the nominal survivor, the merged bank took the Bank of America name and operates under the original charter for Bank of Italy.
