History
The bank was first established in 1923 as an alliance of about 290 credit unions in Taiwan.
In 2009, BNP Paribas announced a joint venture with TCB to sell insurance products in Taiwan.[2] The following year, BNP announced another joint venture with TCB to set up an asset management operation in Taiwan.[3]
Taiwan Cooperative Bank was listed by the Financial Supervisory Commission as a domestic systemically important bank (D-SIB), along with Taipei Fubon Bank, CTBC Bank, Cathay United Bank, Mega International Commercial Bank, and First Commercial Bank (第一銀行).[4]
In 2022, the bank opened a Czech office in Prague to tap business opportunities in Central Europe. The move came in the midst of warming relations between Taiwan and the Czech Republic.[5]
On 2 July 2023, CEO Lin Chien-hao (林謙浩) passed away, and operations were announced to be continuing under the interim leadership of bank president Lin Mao-yin (林衍茂) and general manager Chen Mei-tsu (陳美足).[6]
