UTICA, New York - Public unhappiness with the policies and behavior of large national banks has the potential to shift business away from them to local banks and to credit unions.

That is a conclusion that can be drawn from a Zogby Interactive survey of 2,068 U.S. adults conducted from Feb. 17-19, 2010. The poll has a margin of error of +/-2.2%.  

Here are the main findings of the survey:

• 37% of adults consider a "major national bank" as where they do most of their banking.
• 32% of U.S. adults say they have "considered moving some or all of (their) banking from a large national bank to a community bank or credit union because (they) are unhappy with the policies or behavior of large national banks."
• 14% have moved some of their banking in the past year from a large national bank to a community bank or credit union.
• 9% of all U.S. adults have moved some of their business from large national banks as a protest.
