Classification 91: Bank Robbery
This classification was established in 1936, subsequent to the 1934 passage of legislation that made the robbery of specified financial institutions federal crimes. Such institutions currently include member banks of the Federal Reserve System; all banks organized under federal statute; and all financial institutions whose deposits are federally insured. The FBI, however, does not have exclusive jurisdiction over bank robberies, and therefore, state and local law enforcement agencies also investigate them.
