The National Information Center (NIC) is the primary Federal Reserve System source for structure, financial and supervisory information on banking and financial institutions.  The centralized location of these data enables users to trace complex organizational structures and link associated financial and supervisory information for all entities that the Federal Reserve has an interest. 

Visitors to the NIC web site can run tiering reports on non-complex and complex bank holding companies and access financial information for financial institutions nationwide.

The site also provides:

• domestic and foreign institution search capabilities;
• ability to display the organization hierarchy, structure history (name and charter changes, mergers) for any institution on the NIC;
• acquisition history information;
• top 50 banks and bank holding companies for the current quarter; and the ability to locate branches of U.S. banks.
