Founded in 1941, HBL became Pakistan's first commercial bank. In 1951 it opened its first international branch in Colombo, Sri Lanka. In 1972 the bank moved its headquarters to the Habib Bank Plaza, which became the tallest building in South Asia at the time. The Government nationalized the bank in 1974 and privatized it in 2003; at that time the Aga Khan Fund for Economic Development acquired a controlling share.

HISTORY:

Mohammed Ali Jinnah, Pakistan's first Governor General, realized the importance of financial inter-mediation while he was campaigning for the creation of a separate homeland for the Muslims. He persuaded the Habib family to establish a commercial bank that could serve the Muslim community. His initiative resulted in the creation of Habib Bank in 1941, with head office in Bombay (now Mumbai), and fixed capital of 25,000 rupees. The bank played an important role in mobilizing funds from the Muslim community to finance the All-India Muslim League's campaign for the establishment of Pakistan. Habib Bank also played an important role in channeling relief funds to Muslims hurt in the communal riots and violence that preceded the departure of the British from British India and the subsequent partition.

After the formation of Pakistan in 1947, Habib Bank moved its headquarters to Karachi, Pakistan's first capital, at the urging of Governor-General Jinnah. This gave Karachi its first commercial bank of the newly formed Pakistan. The Habib family would own and manage the bank until the Pakistan government nationalized it on 1 January 1974.

Banks function as institutions that collect public funds by issuing valuable documents. In this way, public funds will be safer and stored properly. The bank will re-manage the funds that have been collected and use them for financing, both in the economic and development sectors within a certain period of time. Thus, the funds raised will not stay put but managed and have the potential to develop.
Banks also have function to provide business capital assistance to communities or companies to develop their business. This capital assistance is usually provided in the form of credit. There are also pawnshops, which are non-bank financial institutions. Pegadaian was founded with the aim of being able to provide loans to customers but with collateral in the form of goods or securities.
