The Bank of America Corporation (simply referred to as Bank of America) is an American multinational investment bank and financial services holding company headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The bank is on the list of global systemically important banks, so it is one of the 30 major banks that have been classified as a systemically important financial institution by the Financial Stability Board (FSB).[1]
Working with the FBI
At the request of the FBI after the January 6 2021 riots at the US Capitol, but without a warrant, the bank gave confidential banking details of anyone making certain purchases in and around Washington DC before and after the riots, and handed over the information of 211 people. This was presumably part of the secretive InfraGard program. The FBI wanted information on customers who made debit or credit card purchases in DC, reserved hotels and Airbnbs in and around the capital, patronized weapons stores and made airline reservations. Only one of those 211 people was brought in for questioning, and none of them were arrested,[2]
