Summary
Bank of America is one of the largest financial companies in the world. The company is primarily a U.S. retail and commercial bank, with a network of more than 4,000 branches across much of the country. The 2005 acquisition of MBNA made Bank of America the nation’s largest credit-card lender. As such, trends in consumer interest rates, employment, income growth and borrowing patterns represent a significant risk to the company’s earnings. The 2008 acquisition of Countrywide made BofA the country’s largest mortgage company as well. BofA became a top-tier securities firm and retail broker with the acquisition of Merrill Lynch.
