Hellenic Bank Group commenced operations in 1976, whereby in a relatively short period of time, it managed to establish itself as one of the biggest banking and financial institutions in Cyprus.

The success of the Group, in the context of an intensely competitive market, is based on exemplary customer service, a wide range of products and services and implementation of the latest technology.

In March 1996, the Group acquired the onshore operations of Barclays Bank in Cyprus. The enlarged Hellenic Bank Group now employs over 1,700 employees. This expansion enabled the dissemination of a broader range of products and services across a wider branch network. Alongside the traditional banking operations, the Group also provides a wide range of financial services.
