The Department of Banking was created in 1916 by the 37th General Assembly. Prior to becoming a separate department, banking was under the supervision of the State Auditor (RG 9). Since 1986, Banking has been a division within the Department of Commerce (RG 20). 

The following is a partial list of records from Banking available in the State Archives; a complete list of series is available at the Research Center in Des Moines.
