Brac Bank Limited (Satmasjid Road Branch)

BRAC Bank Limited began with the vision to provide banking solutions to the ‘unbanked’ Small and Medium Entrepreneurs. Taking inspiration from its parent organization BRAC, the largest NGO in the world, BRAC Bank introduced small-ticket loans to the small and medium enterprises (SME), to specifically bring the grassroots entrepreneurs under the umbrella of formal banking service. Approximately, half of BRAC Bank’s lending portfolio comprises of small and medium enterprises–popularly known as the ‘SME’.
In 2001, BRAC Bank did not start its journey like any other conventional bank. Over the past few decades, traditional banks were reluctant to invest in this sector. At a time when it was almost impossible for the SME entrepreneurs to get financing from the banking sector in Bangladesh, BRAC Bank stepped forward and came to finance these unbanked SME entrepreneurs. BRAC Bank is a performance-driven dynamic organization, where its values founded at the core of every activity as pillars. It is the only member of the Global Alliance for Banking on Values (GABV) from Bangladesh.
The Global Alliance comprises of 48 (as of May 2018) financial institutions operating in countries across Asia, Africa, Australia, Latin America, North America, and Europe - serving more than 41 million customers, holding up to USD 127 billion of combined assets under management and powered by a network of 48,000 co-workers. BRAC Bank shares the 3P Philosophy – People, Planet and Profit. We believe that we have a responsibility towards the people we work with and the places we operate in. As a mission-driven bank, we prefer to work for the welfare of our people and society.

BRAC Bank Limited is committed to support its community by taking initiatives to improve the environment, in a broader sense to protect the earth. In a partnership with Bangladesh Economic Zones Authority (BEZA), the bank has planned for a tree plantaion project in June 2019. The bank is determined to provide financial support with a view to plant a great number of trees at Mirsarai, Chattogram. 

The forestation project covers 500 acres of land that will protect the coastal belt, as well as beautify the environment.
