Punjab National Bank (PNB) is the third largest bank in India. This banking and financial services company based in New Delhi, India, was founded in 1894 by Lala Lajpat Rai. It is presently the second largest government-owned commercial bank in India- the first being the SBI and the third being the Bank of Baroda. With more than 5000 branches across 764 cities in India, the Punjab National Bank serves to the banking and financial needs of more than 37 million customers.
With total assets of more than US$60 billion (financial year 2007), Punjab National Bank has a banking subsidiary in the United Kingdom (UK) and has branches in Hong Kong, Kabul and Dubai. The bank also has representative offices in Almaty, Dubai, Oslo, and Shanghai.
Many founders of PNB were leaders of the Swadeshi movement. It is interesting to note that PNB holds the distinction of being the first Indian bank to have been started with Indian capital and has survived to this day. It was registered on May 19th, 1894, under the Indian Companies Act with its office in Anarkali Bazaar, Lahore. The common aim of establishing the bank was to offer to countrymen a truly national bank which would work in the economic interest of the country.
