About: |
Volksbank – Ljudska banka has been successfully active on the Slovene market since 1993. The bank’s main shareholder is Volksbank International AG (a subsidiary of Österreichische Volksbanken-AG).
Österreichische Volksbanken-AG (ÖVAG) was founded in 1922 by commercial lending cooperatives and is majority-owned by more than 60 independent Austrian “Volksbanken” (co-operative banks). The bank is the central institute of one of the most important banking groups in Austria and an international commercial bank. Already in 1991 ÖVAG was one of the first banks to begin its expansion into the challenging markets of Central and Eastern Europe.
Volksbank International AG (VBI) - located in Vienna, Austria - now heads a successful and expanding network in Central and Eastern Europe. By the end of 2004 Volksbank International AG's network consisted of 150 branches in eight Central and Eastern European countries. VBI's subsidiaries are located in the Slovak Republic, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia and Romania. Their total assets have grown by 52% from EUR 2.3 billion in 2002 to EUR 3.5 billion in 2004. Around 2,500 employees offer private and corporate clients the full range of modern bank products and services. Via highly specialised companies, personalised services in the fields of leasing, real estate, fund management, insurance and investment banking are provided. In addition, Österreichische Volksbanken-AG has a subsidiary in Malta as well as representative offices in Italy and France.
In 2004 Volksbank International AG intensified cooperation with its German and French partners. Minority stakes of 24.5% are held by both DZ BANK / WGZ-Bank and the French Banque Fédérale des Banques Populaires each. In accordance with VBI`s motto "Extending borders" this fresh capital will enable us to further enlarge our network and improve the range of services for our clients.
Via its co-operation with the Confédération Internationale des Banques Populaires, which has a network of 30,000 banking outlets in the member states in Europe, North Africa, Argentina, Canada and Japan, Volksbank – Ljudska banka is able to offer its clients a presence in all major financial centres worldwide.
However size isn't everything! Our commitment of being a special partner for our clients has proved very successful. Personal contact with our clients, mutual trust and reliability are of primary importance to us. The professional quality of our services and the long term relationship we build with our clients in order to ensure business success are the most important criteria for us.
