History

On January 1, 1991, the international commercial bank "Al Baraka Kazakhstan" was opened in Alma-Ata.

On April 14, 1993, a new law "On Banks in the Republic of Kazakhstan" came into force. In this regard, the Kazakh-Saudi International Commercial Bank "Al Baraka Kazakhstan" was transformed into the Joint Joint Stock Bank "International Bank "Al Baraka Kazakhstan".

In January 1997, in connection with the mandatory, according to the law of the Republic of Kazakhstan, re-registration, "International Bank "Al Baraka Kazakhstan"" was renamed into CJSC “Bank Caspian”.

In April 1997, CJSC "Bank Caspian" and OJSC "Kazdorbank" entered into an agreement on partnership and cooperation, as a result of which these organizations merged and OJSC "Bank Caspian" was formed.

In August 2003, in accordance with the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On Joint Stock Companies" dated May 13, 2003, Open Joint Stock Company "Bank Caspian" passed state re-registration in connection with the change of name to JSC “Bank Caspian”.

On November 15, 2008, as a result of rebranding, Bank Caspian JSC changed its name to Kaspi Bank JSC.
