Historical Development of the Branch Bank Mellat is a state-owned bank that was established in 1980 in Iran as a result of nationalizing 10 private banks. The size of the Bank assets is $57.556M whereas the shareholder’s equity amounts to $2.284M as of 22 March 2011. The bank has branches in Turkey, Armenia and Korea, and subsidiary banks in UK, Germany and Malaysia. The branches and banks outside Iran mainly aim at acting as an intermediary for any foreign trade transaction between Iran and the third countries, especially the abovementioned countries. The branch was allowed to operate as a foreign bank branch established in Turkey according to the Council of Ministers’ resolution dated 5 February 1981 and number 82/2406. Started operating on 16 April 1982, Bank Mellat has three branches in Turkey- the main branch being in Istanbul and the others in Ankara and Izmir. 2 BANK MELLAT, HEAD OFFICE: TEHRAN – IRAN ISTANBUL TURKEY MAIN BRANCH, ANKARA AND IZMIR BRANCHES 2011 ANNUAL REPORT 1.1.1.

Remarks by the Board of Directors’ Chairman and the General Manager regarding the Operating Period and their Anticipations for the Future 5.1. Remarks by the Chairman of the Board of Directors The branch mainly aims at acting as an intermediary for the foreign trade transactions between the Republic of Turkey and the Islamic Republic of Iran and providing the banking services which the entities and institutions in both countries need to this end. This objective naturally includes providing support to finance the said foreign trade transactions. The progress in the foreign trade volume between the two countries is vital for the branch pursuant to this objective. I am more than pleased to mention that the foreign trade volume between the two countries has been gradually increasing in the past years. This trend also continued in 2011 and the export volume, import volume and total foreign trade volume increased by ca. 18%, 65% and 50% respectively to exceed $16bln compared to the previous year. It is estimated that it will further increase in the next years. There was a rapid growth in the Branch assets particularly from the last quarter of 2010 due to the developments occurred in mid-2010 as well as the increase in the foreign trade volume. It continued until the early third quarter of 2011. As a result, the growth in the branch balance sheet was well beyond the sector average in 2011. I would like to underline three pleasing points as to the growth of the Branch. First, the assets quality was maintained during such rapid growth and there was no negative events regarding the matter. Secondly the growth was achieved in those fields which the Branch targeted, was focused on and gave priority to.

  • The Court of Justice Confirms the Annulment of the Fund-Freezing Measures in Place Against Bank Mellat Since 2010
    Court of Justice of the European Union PRESS RELEASE No 14/16 Luxembourg, 18 February 2016 Judgment in Case C-176/13 P Press and Information Council v Bank Mellat The Court of Justice confirms the annulment of the fund-freezing measures in place against Bank Mellat since 2010 The Council failed to provide sufficient grounds or evidence In order to strengthen efforts to combat Iran’s nuclear proliferation-sensitive activities and the development of nuclear weapon delivery systems in Iran, the Council froze the funds of various Iranian financial entities, including Bank Mellat, 1 from 2010 onwards. The reasons given for freezing Bank Mellat’s funds were essentially as follows: ‘Bank Mellat engages in a pattern of conduct which supports and facilitates Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile programmes. It has provided banking services to United Nations and EU listed entities or to entities acting on their behalf or at their direction, or to entities owned or controlled by them. It is the parent bank of First East Export [FEE] which is designated under United Nations Security Council Resolution 1929’. Bank Mellat successfully challenged the freezing of its funds before the General Court.2 The Council subsequently appealed to the Court of Justice to have the General Court’s judgment set aside. In today’s judgment, the Court of Justice, confirming the principles established in Kadi II,3 finds, as did the General Court, that the first two sentences of the reasons set out above do not enable Bank Mellat to establish specifically which banking services it provided to which entities, particularly as the persons whose accounts were managed by Bank Mellat are not identified.

  • 20 Bank Pasargad
    Experience of Iran November in Islamic Banking 2019 1 In the name of God Experience of Iran in Islamic Banking 1. Preface During the past few decades Islamic banking has grown dramatically in the world and many non-Islamic countries have welcomed it as an alternative banking system working in parallel to conventional banking and have authorized establishment of Islamic banks in their territory or Islamic banking departments within conventional banks observing Islamic banking principles and guidelines. After the Iranian revolution, contrary to many Islamic countries which carry out both Islamic and conventional banking systems, such as GCC countries, as required by the Iranian constitution, all banks in Iran, both foreign and domestic, are obliged to exclusively observe and practice Islamic banking. Henceforth, there is no relationship or cooperation between conventional and Islamic banks in Iran. Notwithstanding, all Iranian banks are free to have correspondent banking relations with conventional international banks established outside of Iran. 2. Iran Banking System The history of banking commenced in Iran in year 1888 by the British when they established the Imperial Bank of Persia. Soon after, the Russians opened the Russian Loan and Development Bank. The first Iranian bank, Pahlavi Ghoshoon (today called Bank Sepah) was opened in year 1925. Bank Melli Iran (meaning the “National Bank of Iran” in Farsi) was established in year 1928 and functioned as both a commercial and a central bank during the period 1931- 1960. 2 In 1960, the Central Bank of Iran was established according to the Banking and Monetary Law, and accordingly Bank Melli Iran became merely a commercial bank.
