Bank of America
Bank of America is one of the largest U.S. banks: it serves about 69 million consumer and small-business clients, manages wealth for individuals, and lends to and trades with companies and governments worldwide.
More than half of its $30.0B revenue was interest income.
Its wealth arm holds more than a bank’s worth of client money.
Merrill and the Private Bank earn fees on trillions of client balances beside lending and deposit-taking.
