.............................. Yapi Kredi Bankasi
Logo and Trademark..............................
One of the most dynamic and experienced institutions in Turkey created from the successful legal merger on 2 October 2006, the new Yapı Kredi prides itself on legacy institutions – Yapı Kredi Bankası A.Ş. and Koçbank A.Ş. – that evoke an outstanding history of entrepreneurship, pioneership, innovation, technological leadership and differentiated banking approach going back more than sixty years, to the establishment of the first nationwide private bank in Turkey, in 1944. Established in 1944 as Turkey's first nationwide privately-held commercial bank, Yapı ve Kredi Bankası A.Ş. played a significant role in the country's economic development as well as the improvement of the financial abilities of its people. Koçbank A.Ş. started providing services in 1986 under Koç-American Bank name with one branch with the aim of contributing to the national economy. Koçbank’s founder was Koç Holding, one of the top industrial conglomerates in Turkey.
Yapı Kredi merger is the biggest M&A project in the history of the Turkish banking sector. As for the historical background for the merger, exclusive negotiations between Koç Financial Services (KFS – the 50/50 joint venture between Unicredit and Koç Group, which owned Koçbank and other financial subsidiaries) and the Çukurova Group, previous shareholder of Yapı Kredi Bankası A.Ş., that started in January 2005 led to a share purchase agreement that was signed in May 2005 for the acquisition of 57.4% stake in Yapı ve Kredi Bankası A.Ş. (held by the Çukurova Group and SDIF (Saving Deposit Insurance Fund)). The closing took place as a result of the transfer of Yapı ve Kredi Bankası A.Ş. shares to Koçbank on 28th September 2005. In April 2006, KFS increased its shareholding in Yapı ve Kredi Bankası A.Ş. to 67.3% through the acquisition of an additional 9.9% Yapı ve Kredi Bankası A.Ş. shares by Koçbank. Shareholders of both Koçbank and Yapı ve Kredi Bankası A.Ş. approved the merger of the two banks on 21 September 2006 through their Extraordinary General Assemblies. Finally, on 2 October 2006, the legal merger process was completed. Koçbank was dissolved, and all its rights, receivables, obligations and liabilities were transferred to Yapı Kredi. The new combined legal entity retained the Yapı Kredi name.
The new combined entity represents Yapı Kredi as a strong franchise with valuable experience and strong reputation gained during a long history for banking innovation as well as Koçbank as a sound and dynamic financial structure with a successful foreign partnership experience. Supported by the competitive advantages of both, the new entity certainly aims to do much more than the mere synergies of two institutions. The new period is aimed at value creation and undisputed leadership in all fields of activity where there is future growth potential.
