Greece is the word and Piraeus has most certainly heard. Piraeus Bank provides retail banking, investment banking, leasing, and insurance services in the Mediterranean and in Central and Eastern Europe. Its network of branches across Greece is approaching 1,000, plus it has about 500 more in Albania (Tirana Bank), Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia, the Ukraine, and the US (New York's Marathon Bank). Piraeus Bank also provides its services through its electronic Winbank business, which includes ATMs, Internet, and phone banking. The company maintains a diverse loan portfolio with energy and transportation loans making up 30% of its portfolio. Piraeus Bank was founded in 1916 and was under state control until 1991.
