Banco Industrial de Venezuela (Industrial Bank of Venezuela), or BIV, was a Venezuelan state bank.
History
editThe BIV was established in 1937 with 60% state and 40% private capital investment. The state gradually gained full control, and in the 1960s and 1970s, the bank was an instrument in the government's import substitution policy of industrialization.[1]
In May 2009, the former president of the BIV, Luis Rafael Quiro, was arrested for corruption. At the time, the bank was the largest state-run financial institution in Venezuela.[2] On February 11, 2016, the bank's assets were transferred to Banco del Tesoro.[citation needed]
