Bank of India was founded in 1906 and has made rapid growth over the years and blossomed into a mighty institution with a strong national presence and sizable international operations.
The bank has been in the forefront of introducing various innovative services and systems. Back in 1989, Bank of India was the first among the nationalised banks to establish a fully computerised branch and ATM facility. The Bank's association with the capital market goes back to 1921 when it entered into an agreement with the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) to manage the BSE Clearing House. This entity, which extends depository services to the stock broking community is called the BOI Shareholding Ltd.
The Bank has 4,001 branches (including specialized branches) spread across all states and union territories in India. It was the first Indian Bank to open a branch outside the country, at London, in 1946, and also the first to open a branch in Europe, Paris in 1974. Currently, it has a sizeable presence abroad with a network of 29 branches (including five representative offices) at key banking and financial centers.
On May 7, 2012, Bank of India (BOI) acquired a 51% stake in Bharti AXA Investment Managers Private Limited (BAIM) and Bharti AXA Trustee Services Private Limited (BATS). Consequent to this change in JV Partnership, BOI became a Co-Sponsor along with existing Sponsor, AXA Investment Managers ("AXA IM") and the Fund was renamed as BOI AXA Mutual Fund, and BAIM was renamed as BOI AXA Investment Managers Private Limited, and BATS was re-named as BOI AXA Trustee Services Private Limited.
