Proton Bank

PROTON BANK was established in 2001 and officially commenced its operations as a specialised investment bank in 2002. The founders of the bank are the late John Markopoulos, and Messrs Anthony Athanassoglou and Elias Lianos. Following a rapid development path, the Bank was listed on the Athens Stock Exchange in December 2005 and later absorbed three listed closed-end funds, namely Arrow, Exelixi and Eurodynamics. In 2006 PROTON BANK absorbed OMEGA Bank, with the new entity's share capital reaching € 350 mil.
