The 15 largest consumer banks held a combined total of around $12 trillion in domestic assets as of June 2025. That means that a lot of people and businesses are keeping their money with a big bank. That could be in part because with a big bank, you’ll likely get access to a wide product variety and in-person banking services at a large branch network. 

These are the biggest banks in the U.S. by their domestic assets, according to the latest numbers from the Federal Reserve. We don’t include investment or business-only banks on this list.

Pros and cons of large banks

Large banks often afford the conveniences of large branch and ATM networks, and sometimes generous sign-up bonuses, but they often charge lots of fees and pay low rates on savings accounts.

Cons

  • Low yields on savings and certificates of deposit (CDs)
  • Often charge fees, such as monthly service and overdraft fees, that online-only banks don’t

Are bank account bonuses at large banks worth switching banks?

A bank account bonus can be a reason to switch banks, but generally banking is a long-term relationship. Checking account holders keep a checking account for an average of 19 years, according to Bankrate’s latest Checking Account Survey. But you have to do the math: sometimes a high-yield savings account for your savings will end up being a better deal than a bank account bonus at a brick-and-mortar bank. Use a compound interest calculator to see what you could earn in a high-yield savings account with your money instead of using it for a bonus.

But a bank account bonus at a bank insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC) that’s offering a competitive yield is an offer that you should consider since they’re not available often.

Branch and ATM networks of major banks

One of the biggest perks of large banks is that they generally have large ATM and branch networks. This can be useful if you’re a big ATM user or have complex banking needs. But it’s crucial to note that online-only banks can also have very large ATM networks, usually by partnering with third-party ATM companies like MoneyPass.

Out-of-network ATM fees can be costly

Having access to a large fee-free ATM network is beneficial since ATM fees can be costly. The average total out-of-network ATM fee is $4.86, according to Bankrate’s 2025 checking account and ATM fee study. When deciding on a new bank, look for one that has convenient fee-free ATMs near you or will reimburse some or even all out-of-network fees that another bank charges you for using its ATM.

Bottom line

The 15 largest banks in the US hold trillions of dollars in assets. These banks offer a variety of services in addition to just bank accounts and have a wide reach through their branch and ATM networks.
