About Republic Bank

Trusted by people and businesses across the Caribbean since 1837

Our story

Founded in 1837, Republic was the first commercial bank in Trinidad & Tobago. We've grown with our customers across generations — helping families and businesses manage life's milestones, build their ambitions and plan for what comes next. Our long-term commitment to this region isn't just a promise, it's in our DNA.

Who we are today

Headquartered in Trinidad & Tobago, we now operate in 16 countries, across the Caribbean, South America, the Isle of Man, and Ghana. We serve over a million customers, with over 6,000 employees who bring local knowledge and trusted financial expertise to every community we operate in.

How we make a difference

We make a lasting, positive impact by investing in the communities we serve. From mangrove restoration and river clean-ups to micro-financing for local startups, we invest in education, health, youth development, entrepreneurship, and environmental sustainability. And we measure success through evaluating the positive impact on those communities — the students, small business owners, and families — that have trusted us for generations.
