The InterGalactic Banking Clan, also known simply as the Banking Clan, was one of the most influential commerce guilds during the waning days of the Galactic Republic and the most important organization in the Outer Rim.[13] It was governed by the Core Five from the Main Vault located on the Outer Rim world Scipio.[2] During the Clone Wars, the organization joined the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and its chairman, San Hill, was given a place on the Separatist Council.[11] However, the Banking Clan continued to conduct business with the Republic during the conflict, though at exorbitant interest rates.[6] As a result of their alliance with the Separatists,[14] the Banking Clan was at the verge of bankruptcy as the Clone Wars neared its close.[2] Senator Rush Clovis exposed the corruption of the Core Five and became the head of the banks.[14] Following the invasion of Scipio, control of the Banking Clan was ceded to the office of the Supreme Chancellor.[3]
