National Bank of Greece National Bank was established in 1841 and became the first bank in the modern Greek state, with a decisive contribution to the financial life during these 170 years of history. Nowadays, National Bank leads one of the largest and strongest financial groups in Greece, with a strong presence in Southeast Europe and Eastern Mediterranean.
