Overview
Cambodian Commercial Bank is a commercial banking brand operating in Cambodia. Established in 1991, it is described as the first foreign-owned bank established in the country. The institution is wholly owned by Siam Commercial Bank of Thailand, linking it to one of Thailand's major banking groups and distinguishing it from locally owned Cambodian banks. The bank serves business customers through a branch network in Cambodia. The available reference material identifies four branches and describes the institution as providing a range of banking services for commercial clients, but it does not provide a detailed, current product catalogue or a breakdown of branch locations. Accordingly, its documented public profile is strongest at the ownership and institutional level rather than in the specification of individual retail or corporate products. A significant regulatory milestone occurred on 28 November 2006, when the bank's commercial banking licence was renewed indefinitely. This renewal indicates the continuation of its authorization to conduct banking activities in Cambodia, although the available material does not state the precise scope of services covered by the licence or describe subsequent regulatory changes. Cambodian Commercial Bank's positioning can therefore be understood as that of a foreign-owned Cambodian commercial bank serving business and commercial banking needs under the ownership of Siam Commercial Bank. Its cross-border ownership gives it an institutional connection to Thailand, while its operating footprint and customer service activity are located in Cambodia. No reliable source material supplied for this entry establishes a separate consumer-facing sub-brand portfolio, major international operations, public listing, financial figures, current executive team, or recent marketing campaigns. The brand should not be confused with unrelated Cambodian financial institutions or with Siam Commercial Bank's broader Thai operations. The authoritative subject for this entry is the Cambodia-based bank identified by the Wikipedia title “Cambodian Commercial Bank.”
History
Cambodian Commercial Bank was established in Cambodia in 1991. Its creation made it the first foreign-owned bank in the country, marking an early stage in the development of Cambodia's modern banking sector and the entry of an overseas banking group into the domestic market. The bank is wholly owned by Siam Commercial Bank of Thailand. This ownership structure places Cambodian Commercial Bank within a Thai banking-group context while retaining the Cambodian institution as a locally operating commercial bank. The available historical reference does not identify the individuals or entities that founded the bank before its acquisition or establishment under Siam Commercial Bank's ownership, and it does not provide a chronology of changes in shareholding, management, or corporate structure. The bank has operated through branches in Cambodia and has served a variety of business customers. The cited description identifies four Cambodian branches, although it does not supply a current branch list, opening dates, employee figures, balance-sheet data, or a detailed account of the bank's lending, deposit, payments, foreign-exchange, or trade-finance products. The documented history therefore supports a concise institutional account rather than a full operational history. On 28 November 2006, Cambodian Commercial Bank's commercial licence was renewed indefinitely. This was an important regulatory continuity milestone, confirming the continuation of its authorization to operate as a commercial bank in Cambodia. The available source does not state whether the renewal involved changes to the bank's ownership, business model, capital structure, or branch network. Beyond the 1991 establishment, the 2006 licence renewal, and its continuing ownership by Siam Commercial Bank, the supplied reference material contains little verified information about later developments. There is no supported account here of mergers, acquisitions, major product launches, leadership transitions, financial results, public offerings, scandals, lawsuits, or advertising campaigns. Cambodian Commercial Bank is consequently best documented as an established, foreign-owned Cambodian commercial bank with a business-oriented branch presence and a durable connection to Siam Commercial Bank.
