I am trying to find the number of individuals in the US that have
accounts at multiple financial institutions.
Also trying to find the same number for small businesses in the US.

Ideally it would be great to know the distribution i.e. how many have
2 accounts, how many has 3 accounts, 4 accounts etc.  But if that is
not possible even the number that have more than one would be fine. 
Note that I mean that these accounts need to be at different
institutions and not two or three accounts with the same bank.
