Find American banks in Argentina

Most major US banks operate abroad as well. Finding a US bank in Argentina can make your transition to the country much easier. If you don't already have an account with the US bank operating in Argentina than open an account stateside before making a move to Argentina or starting a business there.

I recommend: Citibank is one of several US banks that operate in Argentina. The Bank of New York is one of the global banks in Argentina that you can use.

Contact expatriates for advice on banks in Argentina

If you don't know where to begin when banking in Argentina, seek out other expatriates for advice. They have already made the transition from the US to Argentina, banks included, so they can give you the information you need to begin the process.

I recommend: Expat Argentina is a great blog to meet other expatriates and get information on business in Argentina. Transitions Abroad offers a list of resources covering business and economics in Argentina.

Use the largest commercial banks in Argentina for everyday business

Just as there are benefits to using the big banks here in the US, there are advantages to using the biggest Argentina banking institutions for your everyday banking in this South American nation. Using a large Argentina bank will give you more access to branches throughout the nation, more access to ATM's, as well as just making your transition to Argentina much easier.

I recommend: Banco de la Nación Argentina (The Bank of Argentina) is the largest bank in the country and has 616 branches throughout Argentina. HSBC Bank Argentina is an international bank in Argentina that has 150 branches throughout the country to provide a full range of financial services and products.
