Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is the analysis of the legal and literary sources referring to the issue of supervision over the activity of bankers (nummularii). The considerations carried out proved that the aediles, provincial governors or Urbis praefectus, exercised supervision over the bankers. Each of these officials had separate competences as part of the supervision of nummularii. The banker’s activity was important from the point of view of public interest, which is why it is not surprising that the Roman officials held extensive control over the activity of bankers.
