Taiwan Business Bank The forerunners of the Taiwan Business Bank were two private savings organizations, one established in Taipei in June of 1915 and the other in Tainan in July of the same year, following the traditional practice of forming cooperatives.
Taiwan Business Bank Following the restoration of Taiwan to the Republic of China on Oct. 25, 1945, these two organizations and two more savings cooperatives were taken over by the Taiwan Provincial Government and, on Sept. 1, 1946, were reorganized to form the Taiwan Mutual Financial Co., Ltd. On May 31, 1947 the Taiwan Mutual Financial Co. absorbed the Tokiwa Real Estate Co., Ltd., and reached an accumulated capitalization of $10 million former Taiwan dollars. On June 1, 1947 the name of the company was changed to the Taiwan Provincial Mutual Loans and Savings Co., Ltd. Then, because of the similarity of its business to that of a private cooperative, the name was changed again in January 1948, to the Taiwan Credit Cooperative and Savings Co., Ltd.
