In 1981 the bank was purchased by the Çolakoğlu Group, which changed its name to Türk Ekonomi Bankası A.Ş. in 1982. The bank has enjoyed a reputation for prudent and successful management ever since becoming active in commercial and private banking.
In March 2005, TEB signed a joint venture agreement with the French BNP Paribas SA, one of the largest financial services groups in the world. TEB has been aggressively expanding its retail network in Turkey ever since and had 541 branches as of 2013. Ümit Leblebici is the CEO of the bank.
TEB has also two other subsidiaries outside Turkey: TEB NV (The Economy Bank) in the Netherlands, and TEB Sh.A.[5] in Kosovo.
