FINANCIAL SERVICES Companies in United States: Full List
Approximately 1,070,677 real businesses classified under Financial and Insurance Activities in United States, with officer, shareholder and beneficial ownership records sourced directly from official government registries.
Approximately 1,070,677 real businesses operate in the Financial and Insurance Activities sector across United States. Financial institutions are both the most scrutinised entities in this directory and the ones performing that same scrutiny on everyone else. Banks, insurers, investment managers, and brokerages face the strictest beneficial-ownership, fitness-and-propriety, and anti-money-laundering disclosure rules of any sector — because a bank's own KYC checks are only as reliable as the ownership picture behind the bank itself. That circularity is why financial-sector ownership carries more regulatory weight than the balance sheet alone would suggest.
505 companies in this sector are indexed on Zavia so far, part of a continually growing dataset.
Beneficial-ownership and registration rules for Financial and Insurance Activities companies in United States follow the same national framework as every other sector there.

Analysis
What this data actually tells you
US banking regulation is genuinely multi-layered: depending on charter type, a bank may face up to three federal regulators — the OCC for national banks, the FDIC for state non-Fed-member banks and deposit insurance generally, and the Federal Reserve for state member banks and bank holding companies — plus a separate state banking department for state-chartered institutions. The sector has consolidated dramatically over four decades: 4,336 FDIC-insured commercial banks and savings institutions existed at end of 2025, down from a post-1940 peak of 14,496 in 1984.
A genuinely distinctive US feature with no real equivalent among the many European jurisdictions covered in this directory: there is no federal insurance regulator at all. Insurance has been chartered and regulated solely by the states for over 150 years, with the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) — a body composed of the 50 state insurance commissioners plus DC and 5 territories — coordinating standards without legally superseding state authority. The SEC separately regulates securities markets, broker-dealers, investment advisers, and public-company disclosure at the federal level. Counterparties verify a bank’s actual current charter/regulator and an insurer’s actual state-by-state licensing directly, rather than assume a single unified national financial regulator.
Who uses United States financial and insurance activities ownership data
The three checks this sector's data is most often run for.
Multi-Regulator Banking Verification
US banks face up to three federal regulators depending on charter type — the OCC (national banks), the FDIC (state non-Fed-member banks, deposit insurance), and the Federal Reserve (state member banks, bank holding companies) — plus separate state banking departments; counterparties verify a bank’s actual current charter type and corresponding regulator.
No-Federal-Insurance-Regulator Awareness
No federal insurance regulator exists — insurance has been chartered and regulated solely by the states for over 150 years, coordinated (not superseded) by the NAIC, a body of state insurance commissioners; counterparties verify an insurer’s actual current licensing state-by-state rather than assume a single national insurance authorisation.
FDIC Bank-Count Verification
4,336 FDIC-insured commercial banks/savings institutions existed at end of 2025, down from a post-1940 peak of 14,496 in 1984; counterparties verify a specific bank’s actual current FDIC-insured status directly given decades of sector consolidation.
