A leading banking group in Central and Eastern Europe


With its network in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), Raiffeisen International Bank-Holding AG is one of the region's leading banking groups. Raiffeisen International is a fully-consolidated subsidiary of Raiffeisen Zentralbank Österreich AG (RZB). RZB owns about 70 per cent of the common stock, the balance is free-float. The shares are traded on the Vienna Stock Exchange.


Starting already in 1986 by founding what is today Raiffeisen Bank, Hungary, Raiffeisen International has consistently entered growth markets and expanded its regional and local presence. Recent examples are the acquisitions of banks in Kosovo, Belarus, Albania and Ukraine in 2002 through 2005. In January 2006, Raiffeisen International acquired 100 per cent of Russian Impexbank. In July 2006, it purchased Czech eBanka. Both banks were integrated into the network by merging them with the existing local Raiffeisenbanks.


As of 30 September 2009, Raiffeisen International managed subsidiary banks, leasing companies and a number of other financial service providers in 17 markets of the region. Nearly 59,000 employees served about 15 million customers in more than 3,100 business outlets. This presence provides Raiffeisen International with the most extensive and closely-knit distribution network of the international banking groups active in the region.
