According the man bash(1):

/bin/bash
   The bash executable
/etc/profile
   The systemwide initialization file, executed for login shells
/etc/bash.bashrc
   The systemwide per-interactive-shell startup file
/etc/bash.logout
   The systemwide login shell cleanup file, executed when  a  login
   shell exits
~/.bash_profile
   The personal initialization file, executed for login shells
~/.bashrc
   The individual per-interactive-shell startup file
~/.bash_logout
   The  individual  login shell cleanup file, executed when a login
   shell exits
~/.inputrc
   Individual readline initialization file

So, I guess /etc/bash.logout or ~/.bash_logout
