The Indian Overseas Bank (IOB) was established by Thiru M Ct M. Chidambaram Chettyar in 1937. It was set up to encourage overseas banking and foreign exchange operations.In the 1960s, the IOB grew further as a result of taking-over five banks as a part of the government's policy of consolidation in the banking industry. The Government of India nationalized IOB in 1969. In 2000, IOB engaged in an initial public offering (IPO) that brought the government's share in the bank's equity down to 75%.

 

In 2007, IOB took over Bharat Overseas Bank followed by acquiring a commercial banking license in Malaysia (which was given to a locally incorporated bank to be jointly owned by Bank of Baroda, Indian Overseas Bank and Andhra Bank). The IOB will hold 35% share in this new bank - India International Bank (Malaysia).
