History

The bank was established on January 6, 1993, under the name IC Bank. It was founded by a Malaysian businessman Tan Sri Robert Tan Hua Choon as majority owner and former Prime Minister of Czechoslovakia Marián Čalfa. In September 2007, the bank was sold to Banco Popolare, an Italian publicly traded banking cooperative.[3] However, the bank was at a loss and was re-sold by the Italian bank to a British private equity firm AnaCap Financial Partners, which gave it the current name Equa bank. In 2016, Equa bank had 59 outlets and over 200,000 clients, and in its 2018 Annual Report it lists 58 outlets and close to 370,000 clients.[2] In 2019, the bank exceeded 400,000 clients.[2]
