When we hear that a bank has $6.3 trillion in assets, our minds can't process what that really means. It's just a big number—abstract, meaningless, forgettable.
But what if we told you that same bank could end world hunger for 140 years? Or buy every NFL team 30 times over? Suddenly, the scale becomes real. The abstraction transforms into something we can understand, relate to, and question.
Bank Size was created to bridge this comprehension gap. We believe that understanding the true scale of global banking is essential for informed discussions about economics, policy, and society. When we can visualize what these institutions control, we can better understand their impact on our world.
Our goal isn't to demonize banks or the financial system. It's to provide clarity—to help people understand the magnitude of resources concentrated in these institutions and spark thoughtful conversations about what that means for all of us.
