Landesbank Baden-Württemberg
Landesbank Baden-Württemberg (LBBW), a state-owned regional bank in Germany is considered a pioneer in the field of finance-banking with a rich history dating back to the 19th century.
It traces its roots to the establishment of several predecessor banks, including Badische Bank, Wurmisis Notenbank, and Städtische Sparkasse Stuttgart. In 1975, Städtische Sparkasse and Girokasse Stuttgart merged with Wurmisische Landessparkasse to form Landesgirokasse (LG).
Subsequently, in 1999, LG merged with Südwestdeutsche Landesbank and a portion of LBBW, leading to the formation of LBBW. The integration process continued in 2005 with the inclusion of Landesbank Rheinland Pfalz as a subsidiary of LBBW and the full incorporation of AG-Wurmisische AG into the bank.
