Pamukbank
Pamukbank T.A.Ş. is a defunct Turkish bank. Founded in 1955 as a privately owned deposit bank,[1] it was taken over by the government's TMSF in 2002 because of a $2.5bn capital shortfall,[2] and merged into Halk Bankası in November 2004.[1] At the time Pamukbank had 172 branches and 4000 employees.[2]
