Is U.S. Bank part of U.S. Bancorp?

Yes, U.S. Bancorp [NYSE: USB] is the publicly traded parent company of U.S. Bank. While we often use U.S. Bancorp in formal documents and corporate filings, U.S. Bank is what you’ll see on branches, app stores, national television commercials and much more. 

We also have a number of subsidiaries, some of which have variations on the U.S. Bancorp or U.S. Bank name, like U.S. Bancorp Community Development Corporation and U.S. Bancorp Investments. Others are uniquely named, such as Elavon, our global payment processing leader.  

And to respond to a question we sometimes hear, U.S. Bank is not part of the U.S. government.

How does U.S. Bank give back to the community?

We believe that giving back to the communities where we live, work and play is one of our fundamental responsibilities. We do so in a variety of ways including providing billions of dollars in investments, millions of dollars in grants and thousands of volunteer hours each year.  

We’re committed to addressing economic and social inequities. To create meaningful, lasting change, we elevated the role of chief diversity officer to our Managing Committee in 2020, allocated $100 million in annual capital and $16 million in grants to support Black-owned or -led businesses, housing and workforce advancement, committed to doubling Black suppliers, and more.

Running our business in an environmentally sustainable manner is an important component of corporate responsibility. In fact, we hit the first of our greenhouse gas emissions targets 10 years ahead of schedule.
