The Territorial Bank of American Samoa (TBAS) is a state-owned, state-run financial institution based in Pago Pago, American Samoa. It is one of only two government-owned general-service banks in the United States.[3]
The bank was established in response to an announcement in 2012 from the Bank of Hawaii that it planned to leave the territory.[4][5] The bank is unique in that it does not have FDIC insurance and its deposits are instead backed by the government of American Samoa.[6]
