Bank of the United States
- Bank of the United States
There were two organizations known as the Bank of the United States:
* First Bank of the United States (1791–1811)
* Second Bank of the United States (1816–1841)
It can also refer to:
* New York Bank of the United States (1913–1930), a commercial bank not affiliated with the government.
* Federal Reserve, a system of banks controlling access to currency which is perhaps the closest analog to a modern Bank of the United States.
