History

edit

The bank was originally incorporated as "Arab Burundi Bank for Commerce and Investment" (ABB) by Ministerial Order No. 550/063 of 12 March 1988.[1] The bank was established on 1 September 1988 with capital of 18,073,944,000 BIF.[2] On 19 November 1990 the Bank was renamed "Burundian Bank for Commerce and Investment" (BBCI), a mixed economy (public-private) company under private law.[1]

From 2005, the bank opened branches throughout the country. In February 2017 BBCI opened a four-storey office in Bururi, in the southwest of the country.[3] In 2017 the bank chose to replace its IT systems with the ERI's Olympic Banking System.[4]
