The bank provides services that help businesses not only from a financial point of view. We do all this to promote small and medium-sized businesses in the country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The offer was first unveiled in 2018. Its s goal is to provide non-financial services to SMEs as well. Thus, financial and non-financial services are combined for the first time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to stimulate the development of SMEs, the bank  has been offering also free business trainings for about five years, providing SME representatives with the necessary new knowledge about management and competitiveness in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ACBA was established in 1996 as part of EU\u2019s TACIS program. As a result of a long-term and mutually beneficial cooperation between ACBA Bank and the French Credit Agricole the latter became the biggest shareholder of ACBA in 2006, September.
