The Founder
Agha Hasan Abedi founded the Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI) with an ambition that went far beyond building another commercial bank. Founded in 1972, BCCI developed a global network comparable in reach to many established international banks before being buried alive less than twenty years later. This section explores Abedi’s vision, leadership, relationships and wider contribution to banking, development, education and cooperation across the developing world - and the story behind the proposed book The Visionary and His Bank.
