Habib Bank Limited (often abbreviated as HBL) is a Pakistani bank headquartered at Habib Bank Plaza, Karachi with regional offices in Lahore and Islamabad. It is a subsidiary of Swiss-based organisation Aga Khan Fund for Economic Development (AKFED). Established in 1941 by the Habib Family, it the oldest bank in Pakistan post-independence. In 1972, the bank moved its headquarters to the Habib Bank Plaza which was the tallest building in South Asia at the time. It was nationalised in 1974 by the Government of Pakistan and privatised it in 2004; at that time, the Aga Khan Fund for Economic Development acquired a controlling share and management control.[4] AKFED maintains significant shareholding in HBL to date.[5]
HBL is the largest domestic multinational company in Pakistan in terms of assets, and has repeatedly ranked as the top Pakistani company in the Forbes Global 2000.[6][7] As of 2025, HBL is the fourth largest bank in Pakistan by market capitalization and serves about 15% of all Pakistani bank deposits.[8][9] It is Pakistan's largest bank by tier 1 capital.[10]
