INTRODUCTION

HBL was the first commercial bank to be established in Pakistan in 1947. Over the years, HBL
has grown its branch network and maintained its position as the largest private sector bank with
over 1,600 branches and 1,700 ATMs globally and a customer base exceeding eight million
relationships.
The Government of Pakistan privatized HBL in 2004 through which AKFED acquired 51% of
the Bank's shareholding and the management control. The remaining 41.5% shareholding by the
Government of Pakistan was divested in April 2015. AKFED continues to retain 51%
shareholding in HBL while the remaining shareholding is held by individuals, local and foreign
institutions and funds including CDC Group Plc which holds 5% and International Finance
Corporation which holds 3%.
With a global presence in over 25 countries spanning across four continents, HBL is also the
largest domestic multinational. The Bank is expanding its presence in principal international
markets including the UK, UAE, South and Central Asia, Africa and the Far East.
The key areas of operations encompass product offerings and services in Retail and Consumer
Banking. HBL also has the largest Corporate Banking portfolio in the country with an active
Investment Banking arm. SME and Agriculture lending programs and banking services are
offered in urban and rural centers.

History
HBL established operations in Pakistan in 1947 and moved its head office to Karachi. Our first
international branch was established in Colombo, Sri Lanka in 1951 and Habib Bank Plaza was
built in 1972 to commemorate the banks 25th Anniversary.
With a domestic market share of over 40%, HBL was nationalized in 1974 and it continued to
dominate the commercial banking sector with a major market share in inward foreign
remittances (55%) and loans to small industries, traders and farmers. International operations
were expanded to include the USA, Singapore, Oman, Belgium, Seychelles and Maldives and
the Netherlands.
On December 29, 2003 Pakistan's Privatization Commission announced that the Government of
Pakistan had formally granted the Aga Khan Fund for Economic Development (AKFED) rights
to 51% of the shareholding in HBL, against an investment of PKR 22.409 billion (USD 389
million). On February 26, 2004, management control was handed over to AKFED. The Board of
Directors was reconstituted to have four AKFED nominees, including the Chairman and the
President/CEO and three Government of Pakistan nominees.
