money center banks
Definition
Banks located in economic hubs (in large cities such as Los Angeles, New York, London, and Hong Kong) and earn revenue from transactions between themselves and governments, big businesses, and other banks, rather than the individual consumer. Regular banks usually take their cues from these banks, especially as they regard interest rates and other business practices. Also called money market center banks.
