HALKBANK was incorporated in 1933 with the intention of preserving permanent economic development, social equilibrium and social protection. Influenced by the words of the great leader Atatürk: „When the day comes that I witness great factories being built in place of small shops, I’ll be elated to the highest degree“, HALKBANK started allocating funds to artisans and owners of small enterprises and thus commenced capital accumulation on convenient conditions from the very moment of its incorporation.
With its approach committed to social responsibility, the aim of HALKBANK is to efficiently fulfil all banking services, create additional value for its clients, shareholders and more than 23,000 employees, contribute to the development of the banking sector and capital market and earns a respectable place in banking industry. HALKBANK managed to become the third biggest bank in assets, according to the results from 2020.
