Banque Misr is an Egyptian bank. Founded in 1920, the bank has branch offices in all of Egypt's governorates, and currency exchange and work permit offices for foreign workers in Egypt. It was co-founded by economist Talaat Harb Pasha, industrialist Joseph Aslan Cattaui Pasha and Joseph Cicurel. The government of the United Arab Republic nationalized the bank in 1960.
