History

The joint-stock company was established in Turkey on 15 March 2012 as a subsidiary of Lebanon's Bank Audi. [2] On 20 June 2012, the Company applied to the Turkish Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency (BRSA) for an operating permit and announced that it received the operating permit on 2 October 2012. [3]

Founded by Lebanese businessman Farid Lahoud, Khalil El Debs is the chairman and Mert Öncü is the CEO of the bank. [4] [5] [6]

In October 2024, the Abu Dhabi-based investment and holding company ADQ entered into a definitive agreement with a consortium led by the Bank Audi to acquire a 96% stake in Odeabank. [7]
