Bank Cler is a Swiss bank founded in 1927. In 2019, it became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Basler Kantonalbank.
In 1927, the Verband Schweizerischer Konsumvereine and the Swiss Federation of Trade Unions founded the Genossenschaftliche Zentralbank (French: Banque Centrale Coopérative; Italian: Banca Centrale Cooperativa). It became a shares company in 1970, and in 1995 was renamed Bank Coop (Banque Coop; Banca Coop). In 1999, the Basler Kantonalbank became the majority shareholder. On May 19, 2017, the institution undertook a comprehensive rebranding and became the Bank Cler (Banque Cler; Banca Cler).
