Bank-e-Millie Afghan (BMA) was the first financial institution established in Afghanistan in 1933. Similarly, it was the first financial institution established in a public-private partnership set up with a 72 percent share held by the private sector. As the first bank in Afghanistan, BMA introduced formal banking services to people and government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan. Since then, the bank’s competitive strength and ongoing market leadership philosophy lays in its strong capital base and proven trustworthiness. In 1976, it was fully nationalized by the government of Afghanistan. Since its establishment, BMA is a leading bank in providing modern and secure Islamic banking services. Securing depositors' funds is the top priority of the bank. At the same time, the bank is contributing considerably to the development of manufacturing, agriculture, services, and international trade in the country. BMA is operating based on strong corporate governance principles, financial risk management, and strict compliance to keep its credibility and trust. BMA has 19 city branches including the head quarter and 2 counters in Kabul, 22 provincial branches, and equity investments in the United States of America and England. And it is celebrating its 90th year of fame.
