Actually, I'm not really sure that I understand the question.
Maybe you could rephrase it for an Old Fart?

Charlotte has over 1 trillion in assets.

No fair you live here. But, yes Bosshawk is right. Birmingham is the number 4 banking city in the US.

"Birmingham has emerged as a huge banking center and is now the fourth largest in the country, ranked with New York, Charlotte and Chicago. Birmingham is home to four of the top fifty largest banks in the country, more than any other city outside New York. "

Too bad it's still Birmingham

Instead of gold backing their dollars, they use pig ears.

That's pretty interesting. How do they exactly calculate 'size' here? The total number of different banks present in the city? According to the article that you posted, NYC, Charlotte, Chicago, San Francisco, and Boston are the top for "Assets By City of the Top 5 Banks in the U.S" But that's only for the top 5 banks. I'd be surprised if Birmingham is in the top 5 in importance for banking...but still, Alabama moving on up.

It is by amount of assets. Birmingham is second only to NY in the amount of Top 50 banks headquartered here.
