The Shanghai Commercial & Savings Bank

The Shanghai Commercial & Savings Bank (SCSB) was founded 1915 in Shanghai, China, shortly after the establishment of the Republic of China. SCSB was founded with a Social Mission and its mission is “To serve Society, support Businesses, and promote International Trade”. The bank introduces such innovation such as “One Yuan to open account” to encourage savings, microfinance, inventory financing and other products to help small businesses. Today SCSB is headquarter in Taipei, with its subsidiary Shanghai Commercial Bank (SCB) headquarter in Hong Kong.
