Chang Hwa Bank (CHB; Chinese: 彰化銀行; pinyin: Zhānghuà Yínháng; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Chiong-hòa-gîn-hâng) is a Taiwan-based financial institution that offers both retail and commercial banking services to private and corporate customers.
In December 1997, the Taiwan Provincial Government made public its shareholdings in the Bank in line with the government's policy of financial privatization. The Bank was officially privatized on January 1, 1998.
Today, the Bank has seven overseas branches and representatives offices and 175 domestic branches, 4 Sub-branches and 5 securities broker (as of Apr. 2008).
It was established in 1905 under Japanese rule in Changhua County, and relocated to Taichung in 1910. Japanese shares were taken over by the Republic of China government after World War II. The bank was fully privatized in the late 1990s.
