Methodology: GOBankingRates used the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s directory to find the largest bank by total deposits inside of market (deposits within the state). Banks must be headquartered in the state; bank headquarter locations are according to official listing in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s latest Deposit Market Share Report, dated from June 30, 2017. Number of branches and total deposits overall (inside and outside the state) are for informational purposes and did not play a factor in the ranking. The number listed for each bank is according to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and was found using each bank’s FDIC number. The number of branches banks list on their websites might differ from this number.
In four states — Illinois, Massachusetts, New York and Utah — the second-largest banks are listed because the largest provide investment and wealth-management services rather than traditional banking services.
