Our foundation is rooted in Banco Atlántida, the Group's oldest and most distinguished member. From 1913 to 1950, Banco Atlántida played a pivotal role in Honduras as the nation's sole issuer of paper currency, a testament to its early significance and stability. Even after the establishment of the Central Bank, Banco Atlántida continued its crucial mission, providing vital credit and investment resources that fueled the development of countless business ventures and contributed significantly to the nation's economic progress.
As Honduras became the bedrock of our expanding ambitions, the Group strategically diversified its offerings. The 1970s marked the establishment of COALSA (Compañía Almacenadora), providing essential bonded warehouse services, followed by the launch of Leasing Atlántida in 1978, broadening our financial instruments. Our commitment to comprehensive financial well-being led to the creation of Seguros Atlántida in 1985, offering robust insurance solutions, and the establishment of AFP Atlántida in 1998, which quickly rose to become the leading pension fund administrator in Honduras, securing the financial futures of countless individuals.
Reaching a centennial milestone in 2013, Banco Atlántida embraced a new era, proactively adopting digital transformation strategies to meet the evolving needs of a modern financial landscape. This forward-thinking approach laid the groundwork for our next phase of expansion beyond Honduran borders.

Our international footprint began to take shape in 2015 with the strategic acquisition of AFP Confía, the leading pension fund in Central America and the Caribbean. This was followed in 2016 by the acquisition of a brokerage firm and investment fund in El Salvador, further diversifying our service portfolio. In 2017, Banco Atlántida began operations in El Salvador under the umbrella of Inversiones Financieras Atlántida S.A., following the acquisition of Banco ProCredit. Since then, Banco Atlántida El Salvador has demonstrated exceptional and solidifying our position in the Salvadoran financial system. Today, Inversiones Financieras Atlántida proudly owns five thriving companies in El Salvador: Atlántida Capital, Atlántida Securities, Seguros Atlántida, AFP Confía, and Banco Atlántida, establishing us as the most comprehensive financial conglomerate in the Salvadoran market.
Our Central American expansion continued on November 1, 2019, after receiving authorization to launch our flagship brand, Banco Atlántida, in Nicaragua. This strategic move aimed to extend our service reach to regional clients and address the financial needs of the Nicaraguan market with our characteristic quality and innovative solutions.
