Neither a purveyor of fried chicken nor an ominous Russian spy shop, KBC Group is actually one of Belgium's largest financial services firms. The company operates more than 900 bank branches in Belgium and another 1,200 in Central and Eastern Europe, providing insurance, asset management, private banking, and other services. It has still more operations in Western Europe, the US, and Southeast Asia. The bank is organized into four primary business units: Belgium; Central and Eastern Europe and Russia; Merchant Banking; and European Private Banking. In 2009 KBC received its third government bailout upon reporting losses related to its portfolio of toxic investments.
