History
AikBank initially was initially established in 1976 in Niš as an internal bank of the Agroindustrijsko komercijalna banka (AIK banka). In 1993, it became a full-fledged financial institution, working with legal entities and individual clients. In 2006, Greek ATEbank acquired 24.99% of common and 24.99% of preferential shares of AIK Banka.
In 2014, a Serbian company Sunoko (subsidiary of MK Group), became the major shareholder of the company with 50.37% of total shares at the time.[3] In 2015, the bank moved its headquarters from Niš to Belgrade and changed its name to AIK Banka a.d. Belgrade.[4] AIK Banka purchased a 21 percent stake of the Slovenian Gorenjska Banka in 2016.[5] Locally, AIK Banka acquired 100% of shares of Alpha Bank in 2017.[6] In 2017, AIK Banka recorded 101.97 million euros of net profit, the most in the Serbian banking sector.[7] In 2021, AIK Banka bought the majority of shares of Serbian subsidiary of Sberbank.[8]
In 2023, AIK Banka bought the majority of shares of another bank operating in Serbia, Eurobank Direktna, for a total of 280 million euros.[9]
It changed its name to AikBank in 2025.[10]
