History

CrediaBank was created through the merger of Attica Bank which was founded in 1924 and Pancreta Bank which was founded in 1993. In July 2025, CrediaBank presented its new name, inaugurating its relaunch. In August 2025, CrediaBank was selected as the preferred investor for the acquisition of the 70% of HSBC Malta, and the agreement was confirmed one month later for a consideration of €200 m., marking the bank’s first international business transaction.

In September 2025, CrediaBank proceeded into major transformation milestones:
