Talk:National bank (United States)

Merge proposal

The duality of the banking system in the US truly exists, the proper term used by researchers is "dual banking system". IMHO, the articles should be merged, and the result renamed into Dual banking system (possible additional source [1]). The current titles of the articles are very confusing: to begin, there are many "National banks" in the US (listed in the article indeed). Furthermore, articles do not contain even a mention of the dual banking system. Викидим (talk) 08:47, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

Oppose. The article Banking in the United States covers the banking system already, while this article and state bank (United States) exist as sub-articles indicating specific details of those particular categories, including the aforementioned list. oknazevad (talk) 00:35, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

I have no issue with your suggestion, but some work will be required anyhow: currently Banking in the United States does not even define the "dual system". The State bank (United States) has very little information and a long unsourced list that combines articles about actual banks and the buildings that happen to have "State Bank" in their names.

Since there was no support for the merge, I will add the words "dual banking system" to the Banking in the United States and leave everything else as-is. Викидим (talk) 02:43, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
