NeoBankDB Verdict

Licence first · score second

6.4

/10 · Mixed

OJSC mBank in Bishkek is a National Bank of the Kyrgyz Republic bank. It is not mBank S.A. of Warsaw, not Commerzbank, not BFG. Directories collide the wordmarks because both are orange and both say mBank. This desk keeps two slugs. Eligible deposits follow the Kyrgyz Deposit Protection Agency if the bank is a member — confirm the live cap.

What it is

Bishkek retail bank with a heavy digital front. The Polish listed bank is the other file. Read the country in the IBAN, or the absence of one.

Best for: Kyrgyzstan residents who want the Bishkek bank, not a Warsaw IBAN.
