The foundation of the company
Our company was founded in 1988 under the name G&H Bankensoftware AG as a subsidiary of the private bank Gries & Heissel Bankiers, which was founded shortly before in 1987 in Berlin. In the founding period, the bank was still using the then common connection to a computer center in the IT area. However, technological developments in the area of PCs, operating systems, and databases quickly opened up new possibilities, which the team – led by founder and technomathematician Thorsten Heissel – knew how to exploit for innovative software developments. The resulting banking software – initially primarily for the administration and management of current accounts – offered major cost savings and speed advantages compared to previous standards. This made it possible and affordable for banks to switch from the data center to their own infrastructure. With these technical advantages, as well as the consistent orientation of the software to banking requirements, other banks were quickly won as customers and users in addition to the parent company.
Continuous development of company and software
In 1992, “BANCOS” was introduced as a product brand – from the obvious combination of “Bank” and “Operating System”. The software was continuously developed and expanded in line with customer and market requirements. From the very beginning, the software-supported automation of processes to make work easier for the banking organization in the interest of its customers were in the foreground – and exactly this attitude drives us today.
Whereas in the past, this meant the secure storage of data or the prompt mapping of transactions, now the focus for us and our customers is on topics such as efficient workflow control, the full automation of processes, and the introduction of new sales channels.
At the end of 2025, the company was renamed “BANCOS AG” in order to underline our strong commitment to our BANCOS software products with this harmonization.
