Iran Zamin Bank (Persian: بانک ایران زمینis 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

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]

In February 2011, upon the directive of the Central Bank, Mowla Al-Mowahedin institution was tasked with organizing unlicensed cooperatives and assumed responsibility for their guarantees. However, due to embezzlement by some managers, limited expertise, and the lack of familiarity among cooperative officials with the country's monetary and capital markets, issues arose. This led to illegal gatherings and disturbances in various cities.

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]

Iran Zamin Bank is among the banks that were sanctioned by the U.S. Department of the Treasury on October 8, 2020, and placed on the blacklist of this department.[7][8][9]
