Export Import Bank of Bangladesh PLC. (EXIM Bank) was established in 1999 under the leadership of Late Mr Shahjahan Kabir, Founder Chairman who had been cherishing a dream of floating a commercial bank which would contribute to the socio-economic development of our country by facilitating industrialization, woman empowerment, foreign trade, infrastructural development, income generation for the marginal, and above all job creation. He had a long experience as a good banker. A group of highly qualified and successful entrepreneurs joined hands with the founder chairman to materialize his dream. Indeed, all of them had already established themselves in their respective businesses as the most successful business personalities in the country with their innovations, intelligence, talents, industriousness and honesty.
The nucleic personality of the group, Mr Nazrul Islam Mazumder, who has now been leading the Bangladesh Association of Banks (BAB), the apex forum of the commercial banks of the country, and is honoured as one of the most illuminated business tycoons in the garment business in the country, became the honourable Chairman after the demise of the founder Chairman. Under his leadership, BAB has emerged as an effective platform for exchanging views on problems being faced by the banking sector of Bangladesh and for formulating common policy guidelines in addressing such problems.
EXIM Bank starts functioning from 3rd August, 1999 with its name as Bengal Export Import Bank Ltd. On 16th November, 1999, it was renamed as Export Import Bank of Bangladesh Ltd. with Mr Alamgir Kabir as the Founder Advisor and Mr Mohammad Lakiotullah as the Founder Managing Director respectively with their long experience in the financial sector of our country. By their pragmatic decisions and management directives in the operational activities, this bank, in no time, earned a secure and distinctive position in the banking industry in terms of performance, growth, and excellence in management. Under the leadership of Mr Lakiotullah, the Bank migrated all of its conventional banking operation into Shariah Based Islami Banking in July 2004. On 15 May 2024, it was again renamed as Export Import Bank of Bangladesh PLC.
