In the first half of the 19th century, with the adoption of Western trade and finance models, foreign banks began to operate in the Ottoman Empire. During that period, there was not enough capital to establish a national banking system, nor could anyone mention the existence of national banks as a source of capital. This situation hurt the peasants even more because they made up the majority of the population and because they did not have any institutional financial structure that could be applied, they had to borrow money from loan sharks at high interest rates.
In this case, Midhat Pasha (1822-1884), the governor of Nish Province of the Ottoman Empire, began to take the first steps in overcoming these difficulties in 1863 and achieved the reorganization of Memleket Sandığä (Homeland Fund), which became the law of the Homeland Fund Regulations in 1867. The Homeland Fund was the first Agricultural Financial Institution Group created by the state and operated under a state guarantee.
In 1888, the Land Fund was renamed Ziraat Bankasä (Agricultural Bank of China), and Ziraat Bank began operations from its headquarters in Istanbul. The Greek-Turkish War of 1919-1922 affected the bank's policies. The Hellenic Liberation Army opened the Ziraat Bank Management Center in Izmir, and the occupied branches and funds were handed over to the management of the new center. On the other hand, the Turkish Grand National Assembly tasked the Ankara branch of Ziraat Bank with managing the branches and funds. With the liberation of Izmir by Turkish forces on September 9, 1922, the Izmir Organization was reunified with the Ankara branch; on October 23, the Istanbul Organization was also reunified with the Ankara branch. After the end of the Turkish War of Independence in late 1923, the Ziraat Bank became a unified entity again. Since the 1930s, Ziraat has played an important role in financing the mechanization of agriculture in Turkey, which benefited from the support of the US Marshall Plan in the postwar period.
In 1993, Moscow Ziraat Bank, Kazakhstan Ziraat International Bank (KZI Bank), Turkmen Turkish Commercial Bank (TTC Bank) and Uzbekistan Turkish Bank (UT Bank) and in 2008 Greece Ziraat Bank were established and started operations.
In Bosnia and Herzegovina, ZiraatBank BH d.d. Sarajevo, or simply Ziraat Banka, was founded in 1996 and was the first bank in Bosnia (after the Bosnian War) to have foreign capital.
In 2001, Emlak Bankasä was fully integrated into Ziraat Bank.
