Hi I am interested in having the history details of the Uttar Bihar Gramin Bank as well as the progression made over the years?

Uttar Bihar Gramin Bank is a Regional Rural Bank (RRB) in the State of Bihar, India. It is one of the biggest territorial country banks in India as far as branch system, staff quality and range of operation

The bank was made from the amalgamation of Uttar Bihar Kshetriya Gramin Bank and Kosi Kshetriya Gramin Bank (transferor territorial country banks) by Government of India in 1976 according to Gazette Notification issued by the Indian Ministry of Finance.

In the primary period of amalgamation seven Regional Rural Banks, viz; Mithila Kshetriya Gramin Bank, Madhubani Kshetriya Gramin Bank, Champaran Kshetriya Gramin Bank, Vaishali Kshetriya Gramin Bank, Saran Kshetriya Gramin Bank, Gopalganj Kshetriya Gramin Bank and Siwan Kshetriya Gramin Bank had been amalgamated to frame Uttar Bihar Kshetriya Gramin Bank(UBKGB) w.e.f. first March, 2006.

In the second period of amalgamation Kosi Kshetriya Gramin Bank(KKGB) converged with UBKGB w.e.f. first May, 2008 and framed Uttar Bihar Gramin Bank(UBGB).
