Banco de la Nación

Overview

Peru's state-owned financial institution, serving as the financial arm of the government, operates under the Ministry of Economy and Finance. Established in 1966, it manages state accounts, foreign trade operations, and public debt services. The institution plays a crucial role in tax collection and provides credit facilities to various levels of government, ensuring financial support where private banks may not operate.

The organization offers retail banking services, including savings deposits and credit and debit cards, with a particular focus on underserved populations. Its DNI Account initiative, launched in 2021, facilitated government relief payments during the COVID-19 pandemic and saw rapid adoption among citizens. Ranking as the country’s sixth-largest bank by deposits and fifth-largest by loans, its commitment to social responsibility and expanding access to banking reflects a mission to serve all Peruvians.
