Patria Bank is a Romanian bank that offers products and services to all Romanians through four specialized divisions: Retail, Micro Businesses (micro enterprises), SMEs and Agribusinesses.
Patria Bank is a Romanian bank established in 1993 as Romexterra Bank. Later it changed its name to Nextebank. On April 30, 2014 the private equity fund Emerging Europe Accession Fund (EEAF) became the majority shareholder of the bank. This change also brought about the launch of the new brand under which the bank has been operating since March 2016: Patria Bank.
In the spring of 2016 we acquired a majority stake of over 60% in “Banca Comerciala Carpatica” and we started the merger process between the two banks. “Banca Comerciala Carpatica” was established in 1999 in Sibiu and since April 26, 2005 its shares had been listed on the Bucharest Stock Exchange, Premium Category. Its shares were included in the BETPlus, BET-XT, BET-XT-TR and BET-BK indices.
As a result of the merger, as of May 1, 2017 the two banks became one bigger and stronger bank. The new Patria Bank continues to be listed in the Premium category of the Bucharest Stock Exchange.
The majority shareholder of the Patria Bank Group is the private equity fund Emerging Europe Accession Fund (EEAF), whose main investors are major reputed financial institutions such as the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), European Investment Fund (EIF) and other major European institutions.
