Abacus Federal Savings Bank

Abacus Federal Savings Bank () is an American bank founded in December 1984 by a group of business leaders from the Chinese American community in New York City.

Abacus was the only U.S. bank prosecuted in relation to the 2008 financial crisis; it was exonerated of all charges following a jury trial in 2015. The aggressive prosecution of Abacus, in contrast to the relatively lenient treatment received by the large banks, was questioned and criticized by various media outlets.

A documentary about the prosecution and exoneration of Abacus, ''Abacus: Small Enough to Jail'', was nominated for the 2018 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature. Provided by Wikipedia
