megabank
Colossal lending institution
A megabank is an extremely large financial institution, typically with assets in the hundreds of billions or trillions of dollars and operations spanning multiple countries.
The term often carries critical connotations, suggesting institutions deemed "too big to fail"—so large that their collapse would threaten the broader economy: The megabanks got bailouts while ordinary people lost their homes.
