Answer) The Bank of the United States

Predated the fed as the first central bank of Of USA.

Answer 2

The correct answer is: "predated the Fed as the first central bank of the USA".

The Bank of the United States was established in 1791 and was the first central bank of the United States. It was created to handle the financial needs of the new federal government and to stabilize the economy. The Bank issued national currency and provided loans to businesses and individuals, helping to promote economic growth. Although some of its actions were controversial, such as the formation of "wildcat banks" that issued paper money without sufficient backing, it generally served as a stabilizing force in the economy. It lost its charter in 1811 but was re-chartered in 1816, only to have its charter expire in 1836. The Federal Reserve System was not established until 1913, long after the Bank of the United States had ceased to exist.
