Bank Bradesco
One of Latin America's largest financial groups, Banco Bradesco is a Brazilian full-service bank offering everyday banking, insurance, and investments to individuals, small businesses, and large corporations. It was founded in 1943 by Amador Aguiar, who rose from farm laborer to banking pioneer and built Bradesco to serve ordinary Brazilians. The name is a syllabic mash-up of its original title, Banco Brasileiro de Descontos, and its founder famously began his career sleeping on a park bench after running away from home at sixteen.
