Bank Info

Bank Austria was created by the merger of Austria's leading traditional banks. In 1855 the "k.k. privilegirte Oesterreichische Credit-Anstalt für Handel und Gewerbe" was founded, 1880 the "k.k. privilegirte Oesterreichische Laenderbank" and 1905 the "Zentral-Sparkasse der Gemeinde Wien".

In 1991, Zentralsparkasse und Kommerzialbank and Oesterreichische Laenderbank merged to form Bank Austria, in 1997, Bank Austria took over Creditanstalt, the country's second-largest bank.

Since November 2005, Bank Austria has been a member of UniCredit Group. This combination has created a new, truly European bank with Bank Austria playing a key role in the growth markets of Central and Eastern Europe.
