List of Banks on the U.S. Stock Markets

This is a list of smaller banks trading on the major U.S. stock markets that have not formed bank holding companies. It is retained for the long-standing users who still rely on it.

Please treat this as a historical reference rather than a current directory. It is only partially maintained and entries may be out of date — banking organisations consolidate, convert to holding-company structures and are acquired frequently. Verify anything here against a current source before acting on it.

Why banks matter to income investors

Banks are among the largest issuers of preferred stock, and bank preferreds make up a substantial share of the securities on our preferred stock lists. Those preferreds are overwhelmingly non-cumulative, because regulators will not grant cumulative issues the same regulatory capital treatment.

That single structural fact is the thing income investors most need to know about the sector: a missed bank preferred dividend is generally gone for good rather than accruing.

Banks versus bank holding companies

Most publicly traded U.S. banking organisations operate through a holding company that owns the bank subsidiary. The holding company is the entity that issues common stock, preferred shares and debt, and it is regulated separately from the bank itself.

The banks on this list have not adopted that structure. Our bank holding companies list covers the much larger group that has.

About this data

QuantumOnline has tracked exchange-traded income securities since 1997. Every security in this list is researched and maintained by hand from the issuer's prospectus and SEC filings, not scraped from a vendor feed. Where a figure is unavailable we show "n.a." rather than guessing.

Information is believed to be accurate but is not guaranteed, and nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell. Always confirm terms against the issuer's prospectus before investing.
