Agrani Bank Limited, a leading nationalized commercial bank was established on March 26, 1972 with the promulgation of Presidential Order no 26 of 1972. Under the Order Agrani Bank took over assets and liabilities of the Habib Bank Ltd. and Commerce Bank Ltd. functioning in the then East Pakistan.

The Bank resumed its operational activities with an authorized capital of Tk. 5.00 crore and paid-up capital of Tk. 1.00 crore. Initially the Bank had deposit of Tk. 96.17 crore, advances of Tk. 76.56 crore, borrowings of Tk. 29.48 crore and investment of Tk. 11.00 crore.
