About South Indian Bank

South Indian Bank Financial Guidance for Every Stage of Life

South Indian Bank is a private sector bank headquartered in Thrissur, Kerala, India. Established in 1929, it offers a range of banking products and services, including personal banking, corporate banking, and treasury services. The bank has a significant presence in South India and has expanded its operations to other regions, providing services through a network of branches and ATMs. It is known for its customer-centric approach and has implemented various digital banking initiatives to enhance customer experience.

One of the earliest banks in South India, "South Indian Bank" came into being during the Swadeshi movement. The establishment of the bank was the fulfillment of the dreams of a group of enterprising men who joined together at Thrissur, a major town (now known as the Cultural Capital of Kerala), in the erstwhile State of Cochin to provide for the people a safe, efficient and service oriented repository of savings of the community on one hand and to free the business community from the clutches of greedy money lenders on the other by providing need based credit at reasonable rates of interest.

Translating the vision of the founding fathers as its corporate mission, the bank has during its long sojourn been able to project itself as a vibrant, fast growing, service oriented and trend setting financial intermediary.
