History
[edit]The Bank of Shanghai was founded on December 29, 1995, as the Shanghai City Cooperative Bank, by the merger of 98 City Cooperative Credit Unions of Shanghai, together with the Joint Union of the Shanghai City Cooperative Credit Unions. The company resolved to change its name to the "Bank of Shanghai" in 1998, and regulatory registration of the new name was completed in 2000. Headquartered in Shanghai, China, it is a listed company on the main board of the Shanghai Stock Exchange with stock code 601229. In September 1999 and December 2001, Bank of Shanghai received equity investments from International Finance Corporation of the World Bank Group, The Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) and The Shanghai Commercial Bank of Hong Kong.[citation needed] Prior to 1949, Shanghai was the main branch of HSBC, but its operations in mainland China had significantly scaled down in the 1950s. The Shanghai Commercial Bank was also based in Shanghai before the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949, but its mainland operations were nationalized in 1950.
On 11 December 2013, HSBC Hong Kong sold their 8.0% stake of the Bank of Shanghai to Spanish multinational banking group Banco Santander for an undisclosed fee (Santander announced that including the cooperation agreement, the total investment would be €470 million), which HSBC HK listed the stake as an available-for-sale asset with a fair value of HK$3.629 billion (approx. US$468 million) in the balance sheet at 30 September 2013.[3][4] It was HSBC's successive disinvestment in the mainland China after selling Ping An Insurance in December 2012.
In 2016, the Bank of Shanghai applied the clearance for IPO. Since June 2017, it was part of Shanghai Stock Exchange's blue chip index: SSE 50 Index.[5]
