Here to Help Connect You to What Matters Most

Listen to our employees talk about what we’re doing to help make your financial life better.

Building Better Money Habits

The more informed people are about their finances, the better their financial outlook. That’s why we’ve partnered with Sal Khan and the folks at Khan Academy on an online learning experience that’s fact-based and conversational. Now, everyone can take advantage of free, unbiased financial education tools. With engaging, informative resources at their fingertips, people can learn what they want, how they want, in a way that best suits their family’s goals.

And the website is just the beginning. We’re giving every visitor the chance to give feedback on these educational videos to help enhance the site’s content to fit what they need. These comments will help us provide people with a better learning experience that they can put into practice every day. More

Connecting People to What Matters Most through Lending, Investing and Giving

We’re committed to making the connections that make our communities better. In 2012, we extended $19.1 billion in total credit to small businesses, customers, local communities and nonprofits. We provided $22 million in grants to fund critical needs, and another $22 million for housing. And we announced a new 10-year, $50 billion goal to help improve the environment. We’ll continue to support businesses and strengthen communities.
