In 1921, the Bank opened as a branch of Crédit Foncier d'Algérie et de Tunisie (CFAT).
In 1963, the CFAT was renamed to the new name of Société Centrale de Banque, and in 1971 its Lebanese entity was purchased by Banque Française pour le Moyen-Orient SAL (BFMO), a Lebanese banking company. After numerous mergers with other Lebanese banks, in 1982 the bank was renamed Fransabank.
