Page "KBC Bank" Paragraph 6

The Kredietbank also expanded into Belgian Congo.

It established a branch in Léopoldville in 1952.

Then in 1954 it acquired Banque Congolaise pour l ’ Industrie, le Commerce, et l ’ Agriculture and renamed it Kredietbank-Congo, Ultimately it had four branches, one each in Léopoldville, Bukavu, Elizabethville and Stanleyville.

Due the situation emerging after the independence of Belgian Congo in 1960, the bank discontinued its Congolese operations in 1966.
