Mercedes-Benz Bank AG, company
Mercedes-Benz Bank AG is a specialized bank in Stuttgart that belongs to the Mercedes-Benz Group and focuses on financing and leasing vehicles. Beyond vehicle financing, it offers savings accounts, credit cards, insurance products, and investment options for individual customers and businesses.
The bank was founded in the late 1970s as Mercedes Leasing GmbH and went through several name changes: Mercedes-Benz Finance GmbH and later DaimlerChrysler Bank, until becoming Mercedes-Benz Bank in 2008. This evolution shows how financial services became central to the automotive group's strategy.
Customers can access banking services through branches across Germany or online, with personal banking support centered in Saarbrücken. Car dealerships work directly with the bank to offer financing solutions at the point of sale.
The bank manages around 700 corporate fleets with more than 280,000 vehicles, making it a key player in fleet management services. Beyond its core business, it has supported aid projects in Ethiopia since 2003 and serves as the main sponsor of football club VfB Stuttgart.
