In March 1995, with approval from the People's Government of Shandong Province, Shandong Provincial Commercial Bank was established, and began gradually setting up branches in all 17 prefecture-level cities across the province.[5]
On September 8, 2004, a strategic cooperation was successfully achieved with the Commonwealth Bank.[6]
On November 30, 2005, the first out-of-province branch, the Tianjin Branch, was opened.[7]
At the end of 2010, a bill fraud case occurred at Qilu Bank, involving an amount between RMB 1 billion and 1.5 billion. The main figure in the case, Liu Jiyuan, attracted large depositors to Qilu Bank by offering high interest rates. Then, the bank’s business manager colluded with Liu Jiyuan to issue flawed certificates of deposit, which were used as collateral for loans. The cash obtained from the loans was then redeposited, creating a cycle that expanded the scale of deposits and loans.[12][13]
PwC Zhong Tian raised questions in its audit regarding the legitimacy of RMB 4.8 billion in “pledged deposit” loans recorded in Qilu Bank’s 2009 financial statements, as well as concerns about borrowers’ repayment capacity, and issued a qualified opinion. Qilu Bank subsequently replaced its auditor.[14]
Due to the impact of the fraud case, Chairman Qiu Yunzhang and President Guo Tao of Qilu Bank were dismissed.[15]
