Cantonal Bank
The cantonal banks (''German: Kantonalbank, French: banque cantonale, Italian: banca cantonale)'' are 24 Swiss government-owned commercial banks. Most of them were founded between 1834 and 1916, although the Banque cantonale du Jura was founded in 1979 – due to the separation of Jura from the Canton of Berne, which occurred in 1978. 21 are provided by the canton in which they are based with a guarantee for the assets held there.
