Intercorp Financial Services Inc.

A financial holding company that oversees banking, insurance, and wealth management across Peru, run through its best-known brand Interbank, along with insurer Interseguro and investment arm Inteligo. It took shape in 2006, when the Intercorp Group gathered these businesses under one Panamanian roof. The bank itself is older than the group: it began in 1897 as Banco Internacional del Perú, and its modern name "Interbank" came from shortening that original title after privatization in 1994.
