ProCredit Group

The ProCredit group comprises 21 banks in transition economies and developing countries. ProCredit banks provide responsible banking services. Our proactive, professional and friendly staff are committed to long-term client relationships and financial literacy. In the neighbourhoods in which we work, we aim:

• to be the house bank of choice for the very small, small and medium-sized enterprises which create jobs and drive economic development, and
• to provide secure and transparent savings and banking services to ordinary people who are looking for an affordable bank they can trust.

At the end of 2010 our 15,600 employees, working in some 740 branches, were serving 3 million customers in Eastern Europe, Latin America and Africa.

The history of the ProCredit group is a rich one and forms the basis of what we are today. The first ProCredit banks were founded more than a decade ago with the aim of making a development impact by promoting the growth of small businesses. We sought to achieve this by providing loans tailored to the requirements of small businesses and offering deposit facilities that would encourage low- and middle-income individuals and families to save. The group has grown strongly over the years, and today we are one of the leading providers of banking services to small business clients in most of the countries in which we operate.
