Our international positioning continues to expand in the Western Hemisphere, Europe and Australia.

Bank Hapoalim is engaged in international activities through subsidiaries, branches and representative offices. Our overseas activities are centered on private banking and the corporate sector.

In the corporate sector, we are active in wholesale services in two main areas: activities related to Israel or for Israeli clients and local corporate banking- primarily related to credit to large lenders, mainly through syndications with leading international banks.

Poalim Asset Management (PAM) in the U.K. provides world-class investment products for our private banking customers. Global Private Banking services are positioned for a broad marketing view and are extended at a high professional level. Services cover a wide spectrum of financial instruments, enhanced by PAM’s alliance with Frank Russell, one of the world’s leading investment companies.
