Our history

Crèdit Andorrà was founded in 1950. More than seventy years of
experience in retail banking, private banking, asset management
and insurance have consolidated us as an international financial group.

Crèdit Andorrà was founded by a group of entrepreneurs who believed in an up-and-coming Andorra that was starting to emerge in the field of commerce and services.

Under the motto “At the service of people”, the Foundation is one of the main private foundations in the country and carries out a wide range of activities in three main areas: education, social programmes and culture.

Crèdit Andorrà Asset Management specialises in the management of the Group’s financial assets through investment vehicles such as investment funds, SICAVs and pension funds.

Crèdit Assegurances was founded, through which the Group begins its operations in the insurance branch to later become a benchmark in the Andorran market.

CA Vincles Actuarial is an actuarial and risk services consultancy firm that also offers support services for corporate processes, portfolio valuations and social welfare consulting.

Crèdit Andorrà acquired the Andorran subsidiary of CaixaBank, which operated in Andorra
since 1934. The operation positioned the Group as the leader in the Andorran financial market.

Internationalisation of the Group with the opening of a banking licence in Panama, focusing on wealth management with an offer of financial services and global advice.

Creation of CA México Asesores Patrimoniales, specialising in asset and wealth management. In 2016, it expanded its operations as an independent investment adviser. In 2021, it adapted its name to the new global Creand brand.

Crèdit Andorrà bought the Luxembourg bank Banque de Patrimoines Privés, specialising in financial services, wealth management and portfolio management. In 2021, it adapted its name to Creand, the Group’s new global name.

Crèdit Andorrà is the pioneer of Andorran banking in reaching the Spanish market with the purchase of Banco Alcalá, a boutique private bank offering global wealth advisory and asset management services, portfolios, funds and SICAVs. It currently has offices in Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia. In 2020, it adapted to the new Creand brand name.

Crèdit Andorrà entered the United States with the acquisition of Beta Capital Management LP, based in Miami. Under the brand names Creand Securities and Creand Management, it offers independent investment services (broker dealer alongside a self-clearing licence) and investment advice, respectively.

Crèdit Andorrà reached an agreement with Caser Seguros bringing it into the Group’s insurance business in Andorra. The agreement resulted in the creation of two new companies: CA Vida Assegurances, specialising in life risk; and Crèdit Assegurances, specialising in life savings products.
The agreement was extended in 2021, when the Spanish company entered the Group’s non-life insurance business.

Crèdit Andorrà unveiled Creand, the new name to unify the brand. It is the result of the desire to adapt the bank to the challenges of the future, focused on consolidating its leadership in Andorra and driving growth.

Creand Wealth Management, the Group’s subsidiary in Spain, closed an agreement to integrate the securities firm GBS Finanzas Investcapital A.V. specialising in high net-worth advisory and family office.

Crèdit Andorrà reaffirms its position as a pioneer in sustainability by being the first bank in Andorra to sign the UNEP FI Principles for Responsible Banking, the framework for a sustainable banking industry developed through the association of more than 200 entities worldwide.

Crèdit Andorrà announced the agreement to acquire Vall Banc.

The new company SETAP365 was founded, made up of the town councils of Canillo (40.24%), La Massana (19.96%) and Crèdit Andorrà (39.80%), which unifies the snow resorts of Soldeu-el Tarter and Arinsal-Pal. The operation, which should allow for the future stability of the two companies, marks a historic alliance in the ski sector to place Andorra among the world’s top 10 snow destinations.

Both entities become a single bank and the leadership in the country is reinforced.
