Aion Bank is a full-service digital bank founded in October 2019.[1] and launched commercially in February 2020 in Belgium.[2][3][4] Headquartered in the Brussels-Capital Region, the bank operates under a Belgian banking license and is supervised by the National Bank of Belgium.[5][6]
Alongside its flagship branch located on the Avenue de la Toison d’Or in Brussels, Aion Bank operates four additional branches nationwide.[7]
History[edit]
Aion Bank was created following the acquisition of the Italian banking group Banca Monte dei Paschi's (BMP) Belgian subsidiary,[8] one of the world's oldest banking groups, by the US based investment fund, Warburg Pincus in June 2019.[1] Warburg Pincus’s ambition was to transform BMP Belgio into a full-service, subscription-only digital bank designed for both private individuals and SMEs.[9][10][11][2][12][13][14]
Warburg Pincus turned to Vodeno,[15] a Polish technology company founded by Wojciech Sobieraj, to accelerate Aion Bank's digital transformation from BMP Belgio.[16] Wojciech Sobieraj is a banking expert who previously set up the Polish bank, Alior Bank.[17] Sobieraj is the current CEO of Aion Bank.[2]
In June 2020, Kim Van Esbroeck, former Chief Commercial Officer of Bancontact Payconiq, was hired as the bank's Country Head in Belgium.[18][19][20]
In March 2021, Aion acquired ETFmatic.[21] [22]
