Canadia Bank Plc was established on November 11, 1991, under the name “Canadia Gold & Trust Corporation Ltd.” as a joint venture between Cambodian-Canadian nationals and the National Bank of Cambodia. The bank’s management structure included experienced former staff of the National Bank of Cambodia, as well as Cambodian and Canadian shareholders.

The bank’s main activities were based on gold operations, including gold production and lending to merchants. On April 19, 1993, the bank was renamed Canadia Bank Ltd., received a commercial banking licence from the National Bank of Cambodia, and was registered with the Ministry of Commerce. On December 16, 2003, the bank was renamed once again as Canadia Bank Plc.
