Fifth Third Bank
Definition
Fifth Third Bank is a major U.S. regional bank headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, offering consumer and commercial banking, loans, investments, and insurance services across the Midwest and Southeast.
The bank's quirky name originates from the 1909 merger of Fifth National Bank and Third National Bank in Cincinnati, preserving the numerical order despite the oddity.
