History
The history of JSC Banca Intesa began in 1992, when the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development established the Small Business Credit Bank (KMB BANK). KMB BANK was one of the first Russian banks to implement lending programs for small and medium-sized enterprises. In early 2005, the Italian banking group Intesa Sanpaolo, interested in expanding its presence in the Russian market, acquired a controlling stake in KMB BANK, becoming one of the largest foreign investors in the Russian banking sector. In January 2010, the Bank was named Banca Intesa, joining the Russian subsidiary of the Group established by Intesa Sanpaolo in 2003. The merged Banca Intesa was the first bank in Russia with 100% Italian capital
