MCB Bank Limited (ایم سی بی بینک لمیٹڈ) is a Pakistani multinational commercial bank which is based in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. The majority of shares are owned by Pakistani conglomerate Nishat Group and Malaysian bank Maybank. The bank has a network of 1600 branches and over 1450 ATMs in Pakistan.

It was incorporated by the Adamjee Group on 9 July 1947. The bank was established to provide banking facilities to the business community of South Asia. The bank was nationalised in 1974 during the government of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. This was the first bank to be privatised in 1991 and the bank was purchased by a consortium of Pakistani corporate groups led by Nishat Group. As of June 2008, the Nishat Group owns a majority stake in the bank. The current President/CEO of the bank is Shoaib Mumtaz.

The group has a presence in the business sectors of the country such as banking, textile, cement, and insurance. Mian Muhammad Mansha is chairman of both the group and MCB. The bank has established an Islamic Banking unit to offer Shariah-compliant products and services, with dedicated Islamic banking branches in six cities

In 2005, the management of the bank abbreviated its name from Muslim Commercial Bank Limited to MCB Bank Limited to explore international markets; they were facing resistance due to the word Muslim especially from Western Countries to avail licence. In 2008 the head office of MCB was shifted from MCB Tower, Karachi to Lahore in a newly constructed building, namely MCB House located at Sharea Ghous-ul-Azam, commonly known as Jail Road.

MCB, advised by Merrill Lynch, became the fourth Pakistani company (the other three being Hubco, PTCL, and Chakwal cement; they all have been delisted) to list on the London Stock Exchange when it raised US$150 million global depositary receipts.

History

In 2005, the name of the bank was changed from "Muslim Commercial Bank Limited" to "MCB Bank Limited". This need was felt because the bank was already known and popular as "MCB" among its clients and the public, and most people would prefer it too as MCB instead of its full name.[3]

In 2008, Maybank (Malaysia) announced the acquisition of 20% of the stake in MCB Bank Limited's equity by purchasing a little more than 94 million ordinary shares from the Nishat Group. This transaction amounted to MYR 2.17 billion (US$686 million) in value. The price paid by the Maybank was Pak. Rupees 470 per ordinary share of MCB. As per Maybank, “The acquisition is in line with Maybank's strategy, as Malaysia's financial services leader in the region, to build its presence in key growth markets across the region.”[4]

In 2000, the bank established its Islamic Banking Business Group and opened its first branch in 2003,[5] by 2014 the Islamic Banking network had grown to 34 branches.[6] This was in addition to and separate from bank's 1,100 conventional banking branches.[6] In 2015, given the potential of Islamic Banking business, the bank proceeded to establish an independent but wholly owned subsidiary bank[7][8] named "MCB Islamic Bank Limited", referred to as "MIB "in short. MCB Bank Ltd appointed Raza Mansha as its first chairman of the board of directors and Ali Muhammad Mahoon as the first President of the MIB.[9]
