AS "Eesti Krediidipank" was founded in 1992 by the first Bank of Estonia president after Estonia regained its independence and the "father" of Estonian kroon - Rein Otsason. The bank currently serves 65 thousand customers and has acquired the reputation of a bank with dynamic development, which provides its clients with a vast spectrum of high quality banking services in 11 Estonian towns.
