Key Takeaways

  • Eight banks hold 50.6% of the $2.54 trillion in commercial and industrial loans on the books of FDIC-insured US banks, according to FDIC Call Report data for June 30, 2026.
  • Bank of America holds the most, $323 billion, followed by JPMorgan Chase Bank with $242 billion, according to the FDIC.
  • 9.0% of bank C&I loans are booked in foreign offices, according to FDIC data; counting US offices only, Citibank would place 7th rather than 4th.
  • The banks' C&I loans add up to the FDIC's own Quarterly Banking Profile total for the quarter, to the million dollars.

Eight banks hold 50.6% of the commercial and industrial loans on the books of FDIC-insured US banks, according to FDIC Call Report data for June 30, 2026. Bank of America holds the most, $323 billion, followed by JPMorgan Chase Bank with $242 billion and Wells Fargo Bank with $200 billion.

Commercial and industrial loans, as the FDIC defines them, exclude any loan secured by real estate, so commercial real estate lending is not part of this ranking. This ranking covers all 4,238 FDIC-insured commercial banks and savings institutions that filed a Call Report for June 30, 2026, including 38 that have closed since. 4,080 of them report C&I loans, $2.54 trillion between them, according to FDIC data.

How concentrated business lending is

  • The largest C&I lender holds 12.7% of C&I loans at FDIC-insured banks, according to FDIC data.
  • The largest ten hold 54.7%, and the 50 in the table hold 79.4%, according to FDIC data. The smallest of them, BankUnited, holds $4.7 billion, by FDIC figures.
  • The rest is spread across the other banks that make business loans, which is most insured banks: 4,080 of 4,238 report some.

Loans booked abroad

The FDIC's C&I figure is consolidated, so it includes loans a bank books in its offices outside the United States: $228 billion of the total, or 9.0%, according to FDIC data. Only 14 of the 50 banks in the table report any. For those that do, the difference can change the order. Counting US offices only, Citibank would place 7th rather than 4th: $92.3 billion of its C&I loans, 56%, are in foreign offices, by its Call Report filed with the FDIC.

What this means for technology buyers

Business lending is relationship lending: each credit is underwritten on its own financials, structured, documented and monitored for covenants over its life, and the bank's relationship managers carry the client between deals. For a bank that wants to grow its commercial book, the systems behind origination, underwriting and the relationship shape how many credits a team can handle and how consistently they are decided. These guides compare the options side by side:

Planning the change before choosing the vendor? The Retail Bank Business Capability Model states what a bank does, from taking deposits to originating credit, so a lending platform can be placed against the capabilities it supports.

How this list was built

The universe is every FDIC-insured commercial bank and savings institution that filed a Call Report for June 30, 2026, read from the FDIC's BankFind Suite, including banks whose charter has ended since. Banks are ranked by the FDIC field LNCI. The FDIC's field definitions describe it as commercial and industrial loans, excluding loans secured by real estate, loans to individuals, loans to depository institutions and foreign governments, loans to states and political subdivisions, and lease financing receivables. The foreign-office part is the FDIC field LNCIFOR, and the US-office figure is the difference between the two. Total assets are from the same report.

The FDIC publishes the same quarter's industry totals in its Quarterly Banking Profile, the edition for the second quarter of 2026. Its population is the one used here: 4,238 institutions. Summed across them, the banks' C&I loans and total assets equal the Quarterly Banking Profile's figures to the million dollars it prints, a test that a dropped or double-counted bank would fail. BankFind also reports 66 uninsured filers, such as trust companies and some offices of foreign banks, and 9 insured US branches of foreign banks; the Quarterly Banking Profile leaves both out, and so does this ranking. Between them they report $77.6 billion of C&I loans, according to FDIC data.

The Federal Reserve's Large Commercial Banks release, which the asset rankings are checked against, publishes assets and branch counts but not loans by type, so it cannot confirm this ranking. The check here is the FDIC's two products against each other.

Limits

  • Banks, not holding companies. A group that lends through several charters appears once per charter, and business loans made by its non-bank subsidiaries are not counted.
  • Insured banks only. Insured US branches of foreign banks, uninsured institutions, credit unions and non-bank lenders are left out.
  • C&I loans only. Commercial real estate loans, leases and loans to other financial institutions are reported separately by the FDIC and are not counted here, so a bank's business lending can be larger than its row.
  • Balances, not originations. The figure is what borrowers owed on one day; it does not show new lending, commitments not yet drawn, or loans a bank has sold.
  • One quarter. The date of the data is June 30, 2026. A merger can move a bank up or down the list between filings.
