history

On December 19, 1902, the Credit Association of German Pharmacists (KREDA) was founded by 18 pharmacists in Danzig . The first board member of the KREDA was the pharmacist Richard Oskar Mattern , born in 1856 , who had previously owned a pharmacy in Strasburg in West Prussia. Before the KREDA was founded, Mattern was the owner of the Adler pharmacy in Danzig-Langfuhr. The first supervisory board was the pharmacist Rudolf Moerler and took over the office of first director in the first year of foundation. In 1938 the credit association was renamed Deutsche Apothekerbank eGmbH and in 1939 it was merged with the savings and credit association Deutscher Apotheker mbH (SPARDA) , which Mattern was actively involved in building up. After the bank closed in 1945, it was re-established as Westdeutsche Apothekerbank eGmbH in Düsseldorf in 1948 , where the bank developed successfully. In 1955, the Westdeutsche Apothekerbank merged with the Deutsche Apothekerbank in Berlin, which was founded in Gdansk in 1902, to form the Deutsche Apothekerbank eGmbH - a bank for health care based in Düsseldorf. After this merger, the branch network was gradually built up. In addition to the Berlin branch, the Stuttgart branch was one of the bank's first. In 2018 apoBank opened its 85 branch in Bochum. For years, apoBank has been by far the largest German cooperative primary bank in terms of total assets.

Subsidiaries and holdings complement apoBank's offerings. These include a. the aik (real estate investment company), apoAsset (investment specialist), medisign (health telematics) or naontek AG.

In 2018, the bank increased its stake from 24% to 50% minus 1 share in PROFI Erste Projektfinanzierungs- und Beteiligungsgesellschaft AG, based in Zurich (Switzerland), which, among other things, is involved in billing services for dentists, pharmacies and other service providers in the healthcare market deals.

Annual accounts

The financial crisis of 2008 and 2009 led to a massive slump in net profit in 2009 . After no dividend was distributed for the 2009 financial year, Apobank again paid a dividend of 4% for the 2010 to 2018 financial years.

Honors

The Deutsche Apotheker- und Ärztebank awards the Karl Winter Medal to deserving members of the bank.
