C. Hoare & Co. https://www.hoaresbank.co.uk/ is the one if you need stability and quality, no question.

If you are worried about bank runs you can divide your deposits into $250,000 chunks and divide it between banks. (or whatever the insured amount in your country is)

Except this insurance never applies to business accounts.

This is not true for FDIC.

(in the US) FDIC insurance treats business accounts the same as personal accounts. Bank accounts for corporations, partnerships, and unincorporated associations get the full $250k in FDIC coverage, separate from any owner or member of the organization.

(in the EU) the sum is $100,000 and also applies to companies.

OP asked for a U.S. bank. A foreign bank is probably not the best suggestion.
