History and market position
Bank Pekao S.A. is one of the oldest and largest banks in Poland and has been operating continuously since 1929. Since its inception, the Bank has played an important role in providing services to Poles in Poland and abroad and in the development of the domestic financial sector. Over the course of more than 90 years, Bank Pekao S.A. has undergone significant structural and strategic changes – from an institution focused on servicing emigration, through mergers and consolidation processes in the 1990s, to its stock exchange debut and integration with international capital groups.
A wide range of products, innovative solutions and an individual approach to the customer ensure comprehensive financial services, and the integrated service model provides the highest quality services to customers and ensures optimal adaptation to changing needs.
The Bank Pekao S.A. Group actively cooperates with international financial institutions, such as the European Investment Fund (EIF), the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), the Council of Europe Development Bank and the International Finance Corporation (IFC). Thanks to cooperation with foreign international institutions, both the Bank and the Group companies can offer attractive financing terms to clients, including SMEs, and support the development of their investment activities. This cooperation strengthens the stability of financing sources and increases the financial opportunities available to the Group’s customers.
