Banking consolidation

Until this year, Citigroup was the only $1 trillion banking organization in the U.S. Now, there are two more?Bank of America has merged with FleetBoston, and J.P. Morgan Chase is about to complete its merger with Bank One. These megamergers are notable not only for their size but also for the geographic scope that the new institutions will serve.
