Some central banks may have the words "National Bank" in their name, but this has no particular significance for the US. As US laws do no apply abroad, a Central Bank of a foreign country may be named National Bank of ... or Banque Nationale de ... or Banco Nacional de ... Retrospectively if a bank abroad is named in this way, it is not automatically considered a Central Bank.

changes in US laws?

Well, I just got off the phone with managers at two local local institutions, one calling itself "Huntington National Bank" and the other one calling itself "First National Bank." The supervisors I spoke to at each denied at great length and with great vehemence having any connections whatsoever, past or present, to the US Treasury Department, Federal Reserve, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, etc., etc., etc. "We are a privately chartered institution wholly owned by private stockholders and not required by law to redeem checks backed by the US Treasury," etc.

Incidentally--and I apologize if this is an incorrect place to ask such questions, but I cannot find a better one--I have heard multiple people say that under US law, banks chartered by the OCC are required to cash Federal income tax refund checks and all other checks drawn on the US Treasury in legal tender at full printed value. Is this true? Or is this perhaps one of those outdated customs, like banks being forbidden by law to loan out funds they did not actually possess, being forbidden by law to ask about Social Security numbers, being forbidden by law to bundle up and sell their customers' financial and personal information to a million rapacious marketing departments, that the US banking industry successfully lobbied Congress to get rid of long ago in the name of "deregulation?" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.61.156.96 (talk) 21:14, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
