QNB Tunisia, formerly referred as Tunisian Qatari Bank, is a medium-sized Tunisian bank. Subsidiary of the Qatari QNB Group.
History
The bank was founded as the Tunisian-Qatari Investment Bank (TQB) under an agreement signed on March 3, 1982, between Qatar and Tunisia.
Following the decision of the interministerial council on February 11, 2002,[3] the bank became an universal bank after agreement from both shareholder states. In 2004, TQB was the first bank to obtain approval from the Tunisian state to operate as a credit institution with the status of a universal bank, rather than an investment bank.[4]
On April 1, 2013, TQB adopted a new name, Qatar National Bank Tunisia,[5] following the acquisition by the QNB Group of almost all of the Tunisian state's shares.[6]
In 2013, Bloomberg Markets magazine awarded QNB Group the title of World's Strongest Bank on a list of 78 banks worldwide.
