Iran Zamin Bank (Persian: بانک ایران زمین) is an Iranian bank that is headquartered in Tehran and provides banking services and insurance in Iran. The bank operates a network of 262 branches across the country.

In 2011 it was listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange as a publicly listed company. The establishment of this bank followed the approval of the Central Bank of Iran in November 2008 to upgrade from the financial institution of Mowla Al-Mowahedin to a bank.[1]

In 2020, the bank was sanctioned by the U.S. Department of the Treasury together with other Iranian banks.[2][3][4]

History

[edit]

The Financial and credit institution of Mowla Al-Mowahedin was established in 1998 by a group of Iranian investors in Khorasan province, with 400 branches operating throughout the country.[5]

Using its own cash reserves and without government support, Mowla Al-Mowahedin financial institution managed to provide funds to depositors and return their deposits through 160 branches, amounting to 4,180 billion rials. In February 2011, with the Central Bank's approval, Mowla Al-Mowahedin financial institution was elevated to the status of a bank and rebranded as Iran Zamin Bank.[6]
