The Bank of Oldtown is a bank run by the Hightowers of Oldtown.

History

After the Rogare Bank of Lys ran dry in 136 AC, Lotho Rogare was taken up by Lady Samantha Tarly, paramour and step-mother of Lord Lyonel Hightower. The Hightowers had not entrusted so much of a groat of their gold to the Lyseni, and thus remained one of the wealthiest houses of Westeros. Lady Sam wished to know how to put the gold to better use, and thus was born the Bank of Oldtown, which has made House Hightower richer still to the present day.[1]
