History & Background in India

Taking into consideration the economic liberalization, market scenario and the opportunities available CTBC Bank had made entry in India by opening its first branch in New Delhi. The need for the presence was felt by CTBC Bank Taiwan, as there was no financial institution from Taiwan in India till that day.

The first branch of the bank established in New Delhi was set up largely to cater to the business needs of Indian Corporate as well as Taiwanese clients. Moreover New Delhi being the Capital of the country the place was selected to cater to Northern and Eastern part of India as most of the foreign bank were catering in West of India i.e. Mumbai.

The entry in India was during Financial Year 1995-96 and office was set up in October 1995. RBI allowed banking license in February 1996 and the Bank formally started operations from April 1996.

The bank has now opened its second branch in Sriperumbudur, Chennai in June 2012 and will primarily be catering to the commercial banking requirements of both international and domestic companies in Chennai SEZ area.
