Between the 1990s and the 2010s, the bank underwent a series of name changes, becoming Mortorgbank in November 1994 (Protocol No. 6 dated 10 November 1994); Marine Transport Bank in January 1996 (Protocol No. 9 dated 19 January 1996); Marfin Bank in July 2010 (Protocol No. 36 dated 8 July 2010);; and most recently MTB Bank in December 2017 (Protocol No. 56 dated 28 December 2017).
