How this list was built

The universe is every institution that reported fiduciary and related assets on Schedule RC-T of its Call Report for June 30, 2026, as published in the FDIC's BankFind Suite. That includes national trust banks that file a Call Report without taking insured deposits. Institutions are ranked by total fiduciary and related assets, which is managed plus non-managed accounts; the schedule's own arithmetic, managed plus non-managed equals the total, holds on every row.

No second publisher reports fiduciary assets bank by bank, so this list rests on one source: the institutions' own filings.

Limits

  • Custody is not included. Custody and safekeeping accounts are reported on a separate line and are a different business. The custodian banks ranking covers it from the banks' own disclosures.
  • Institutions, not groups. A group with several trust charters, or a trust business outside a bank, appears once per filing institution or not at all.
  • Fiduciary assets are not revenue. Non-managed accounts can be large and earn little; managed assets are shown so the difference is visible.
  • One quarter. The date of the data is June 30, 2026.
