The Raisin Bank AG is a German CRR bank based in Frankfurt am Main . The company with a full banking license specializes in corporate customers and acts as a cooperation partner for third-party companies.

Foundation and development

The Raisin Bank was founded in 1973 by the Hessische Landesbank and the Polish bank Handlowy under the name Mitteleuropean Handelsbank AG Deutsch-Polnische Bank in Frankfurt am Main . The German credit institute operates primarily as a service provider in the business-to-business area and operated under the name MHB-Bank. Since 2005, the bank was a subsidiary of the US investment company Lone Star . In March 2019 it became known that Raisin GmbH, based in Berlin (owner of the Weltsparen brand ), had taken over the bank. In August 2019, the name was changed to Raisin Bank

Services

Raisin Bank acts in the area of ​​service banking, in particular in the area of ​​credit and loan portfolio servicing. The bank is also active as a cooperation partner for various companies, here with a special focus on FinTechs. In the lending business, Raisin Bank AG supports its partners as a fronting bank throughout the entire process, from new loan issuance to renewal and interest rate and condition adjustments to restructuring. The bank acts here as a trustee or as a sub-participant. The so-called EU passport gives you the opportunity to work with foreign customers in the EU economic area. Under the transaction banking service point, Raisin Bank offers its customers account management and payment transaction services for Germany and abroad.

Among other things, Raisin Bank AG cooperates with the online platform Weltsparen , through which it has been possible since the end of 2013 to invest money in European banks at a generally higher interest rate than in Germany.

Deposits at Raisin Bank up to an amount of 100,000 euros per person are subject to security by the Compensation Scheme of German Banks (EdB).
