History
1998–2001
XacBank was established in late 2001 as a result of merger of the two largest non-banking financial institutes in Mongolia, Goviin Ekhlel LLC and X.A.C LLC. XacBank was the first non-banking financial institute in Mongolia to receive a banking license from the Bank of Mongolia. Goviin Ekhlel LCC was established by Mercy Corps in December 1999 with funding from the United States Agency for International Development as a non-banking financial institute serving small and medium-sized enterprises. X.A.C. LLC began in 1998 under the Micro Start Mongolia Project under United Nations Development Program and later transformed into Mongolia’s first non-banking financial institution by uniting the financial services activities of six local NGOs.
2001–10
After its establishment, in 2002 XacBank established a presence in every Mongolian province. XacBank introduced the “Future Millionaire” children’s savings which later became a National Brand serving approximately a fifth of children in Mongolia. In 2004, International Finance Corporation invested in XacBank, the first Mongolian commercial institution to receive such funding. The bank joined the Global Reporting Initiative and United Nations Global Compact principles to improve its corporate transparency and social responsibility. It has been named as one of the top 100 microfinance institutions globally by Forbes magazine in 2007. XacBank was the first bank in Mongolia to receive international ratings from Moody’s Investors Service as well as the first bank to establish a customer contact center. In 2008, XacBank launched ATM, internet and message banking services. In 2009, XacBank expanded outside Mongolia when it invested in Molbulak Microfinance Institution in Kyrgyzstan.
