Amerika Samoa Bank (ASB) was a financial institution established in 1979 in American Samoa and the second-largest bank in the territory[1] with a 44 percent market share. At one point, it had one overseas branch in Honolulu that it opened in 1997 to serve Samoans in Hawaii.[1]

In 1999, Australia and New Zealand Banking Group (ANZ) acquired ASB and renamed it ANZ Amerika Samoa Bank (ANZ ASB).[2] The process was completed by 2001. ANZ ASB has two branches in Samoa and 10 ATMs. In 2010, it launched an internet banking service.[3]
