There are some great resources on-line for finding financial
institutions. I've prepared a Word document with several hundred of
the insitutions, their FDIC number and addresses but the GA format
here doesn't list them well. The location of the document on the
Internet is indicated below.
We'll break these down by category:
CREDIT UNIONS
--------------
There are about 6,000 federally-chartered credit unions and another
3,300 state credit unions. The National Credit Union Administration
(NCUA) has an on-line index that allows you to find credit unions by
state, by charter, by region (also by name):
http://www.ncua.gov/indexdata.html
Their whole directory is also downloadable, "2002 NCUA Credit Union
Directory":
http://www.ncua.gov/data/directory/2002CUDirectory.pdf
The National Association of Federal Credit Unions has a list of the
100 largest, by asset size (June, 2002):
http://www.nafcu.org/Content/NavigationMenu/Economic_Trends_Analysis/TOP100-2002J.PDF
There is a separate organization -- National Association of State
Credit Union Supervisors -- that tracks state-chartered credit unions,
which range from $493 million to $8.8 billion (March 31, 2002):

SAVINGS & LOANS
----------------------------
The Office of Thrift Supervision in the U.S. Treasury Department keeps
the S&L list, breaking it down in classes (over $5 billion, $1-$5
billion, etc.) For example, you can list another 171 in the $300
million - $1 billion category. I've listed 99 here, with certificate
number, location and phone; CEO, and assets.
The first 33 companies are all over $5 billion in assets; I've listed
another 66 in the $1-$5 billion category. You can search and add to
the list from this directory page:
http://www.ots.treas.gov/instsql/search-form.cfm?catNumber=70
This list does not reproduce well in the GA format, so I've made it
available from this website in Word2000 format:

TRUSTS
-------
The search in the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC) data base for
savings institutions yields the following list of 100. The FDIC
search page is here:
http://www3.fdic.gov/idasp/main.asp
The FDIC also has an index of all institutions with trust powers,
listing all pertinent information including dollars in trust. It is
searchable by state, city, zip code and institution name:
http://www2.fdic.gov/structur/trust/search.cfm
A search in the FDIC database for the largest "trust" institutions
yield 909 institutions (fewer than the total number of trust
institutions). For example, the state of Illinois has 332 trust
institutions, but some of them have no assets in trust.
The largest 100 are listed in the Word document for you by:
Certificate # -- Name -- City -- State -- Class -- Assets ($000)
FINANCE COMPANIES
------------------
This is a bit more of a problem, due to definitions and available
data. Finance companies can be split into many categories: commercial
finance; mortgage finance; student loan finance; automotive finance.
The largest securities firms are the largest issuers of commercial
bonds. The Securities Industry Association (www.sia.com) doesn't have
the list of the 50 largest securities firms on-line any more, though
here's a 1997 ranking:
Company -- capital
1. Merrill Lynch $33 billion
2. Morgan Stanley $ 21.9
3. Lehman Brothers Holding $19.8
4. Salomon $19.0
5. Goldman Sachs Group $17.7

48. Yamaichi International (America) $294

50. John Nuveen Company $271.9
LEASING COMPANIES
---------------------------------
A publication called Monitor Daily tracks the leasing industry and
annually publishes a list of the 100 largest firms. The 2002 Monitor
100 report is available for $60:
https://www.monitordaily.com/app_securepdf/www/step1.asp
Google search strategy:
"credit unions"
"state credit unions"
"leasing companies" + directory
"top 100 leasing companies"
Let me know if the Word2000 format works well. Unfortunately,
splitting these lists into text format makes them difficult to read.
