The Banco de Reservas (Banreservas) of the Dominican Republic marked its 85th anniversary by reporting significant financial expansion. As of late September 2026, the bank’s assets reached RD$1.53 trillion, a 13.5% increase over the previous year, with accumulated profits for the first nine months exceeding RD$21,000 million, representing a 17.6% increase compared to 2025.

Executive President Leonardo Aguilera noted that the institution facilitated the financial inclusion of over 235,000 people and disbursed more than RD$376,000 million through approximately 254,000 loans between August 2025 and September 2026. Specific financing initiatives included Expo Pymes, which exceeded RD$7,200 million, Expohogar with over RD$11,247 million in approved credits, and Expo Móvil 2025, which received requests totaling more than RD$8,500 million.

During anniversary celebrations in Santiago, Aguilera highlighted the bank’s regional impact, stating that the credit portfolio in the Northern region exceeds 135 billion pesos, with over 56 billion pesos attributed to Santiago alone. He projected that the institution will close the year with record-breaking profits, expected to surpass the previous high of RD$27,000 million, despite a projected tax contribution of approximately RD$7,000 million.

In recognition of its performance, Global Finance named Banreservas the ‘Safest Bank in the Dominican Republic of 2026’, and LatinFinance designated it the ‘Bank of the Year 2026’ in the Dominican Republic, citing its growth, capitalization, and ESG efforts. Social initiatives included providing over RD$200 million for the Paraíso Oriental residential project to benefit 97 families, and the transformation of the Hotel Mercedes into the Banreservas Cultural Center of Santiago.
