History [edit]
This bank started its activities as Credit Institution in September 1999. Subsequently, in August 2002, it received a full banking license and changed its name to Saman Bank. Saman Eqtesad Credit Corporation was established on September 23, 1999 with a share capital of Iranian Rials 11 bln (US$ 1.4 mln). It opened its first branch on November 22, 1999 and managed to achieve in its first year of activity a 5% return on equity. In 2002, Saman was the third private financial institution in post-revolutionary Iran to receive a banking license. In this context, the share capital increased to Rials 220 bln (US$ 26 mln).
As of May 2013 the bank had 149 branches in Iran (81 branches in Tehran and 68 branches in other cities).[2]
In March 2007, Saman Bank had a paid-sup share capital of Rials 900 bln (US$ 97 mln). It operates 149 branches across Iran. [3] Saman Bank also launched the first internet banking service in Iran and has since been at the forefront of expansion and enhancement of electronic banking.[4]
