History
In 1997, following the closure of the Cameroonian operations of several International banks, including Crédit Agricole, BICIC and Meridien BIAO, Cameroonian corporate investors, private Cameroonian citizens and the German Investment Corporation (DEG), pooled resources and put together FCFA 3 billion (approximately US$6.5 million) to start Commercial Bank of Cameroon. Over the years, the owners of CBC have expanded their operations to four other Central African countries. As of December 2007, the Commercial Bank of Cameroon had an estimated capital base of US$19 million and total assets of about US$309 million.
