Overview

Capital One isn't just concerned with what's in your wallet; it's interested in your bank account as well. The company is best known as one of the largest issuers of Visa and MasterCard credit cards in the US, but it also boasts a banking network of approximately 1,000 branches, mainly in New York, New Jersey, Louisiana, and Texas; it expanded its franchise into the Washington, DC, market in 2009 by buying Chevy Chase Bank for some $475 million in cash and stock. Capital One, which serves approximately 45 million customers in the US, Canada, and the UK, also has units that offer auto financing, write home loans, sell insurance, and manage assets for institutional and high-net-worth clients.
