Arab Israel Bank (Ai Bank) (Hebrew: בנק ערבי ישראלי, Arabic: البنك العربي الإسرائيلي) is a bank in Israel established in 1961. It is owned by Bank Leumi and caters to the country's Arab population.[2]
History
In 1971, Bank Leumi acquired Arab Israel Bank (established 1960), which serves mainly the Arab citizens of Israel in the north of the country.[1] Ai Bank has 35 branches located in Israel's northern and Triangle regions.
The bank is primarily focused on retail banking and has around 470 employees.[3]
In January 2016, the bank merged into Bank Leumi, and its branches became branches of Bank Leumi.
