Bank Leumi, which in 1977 had 350 branches in Israel and abroad, is a successor to the Zionist "Anglo- Palestine Company" founded in 1902 which was known as APEC. The main function of APEC was to provide financial aid for the development of Palestine. When the State of Israel was established the bank served as a financial arm to the newly formed state. The provisional government signed an agreement with the bank entrusting it with the issuance of the national currency. The bank acted as the official banking agency for the government until the Bank of Israel was established in 1954.
