The Union Bank of Israel, Ltd. (Template:Lang-he); TASEUNON), more widely known by its Hebrew name, Bank Igud, is the sixth largest Israeli bank, with thirty branches spread around the country.

In September 2020, Bank Mizrahi-Tefahot acquired all the shares of Bank Igud, therefore legally as of October 1, 2020, Igud Bank ceased to exist as a publicly traded company and became a subsidiary of Bank Mizrahi-Tefahot. Mizrahi appointed 4 directors to the bank's board, and also appointed Moshe Levi as chairman of the board in place of Zeev Aviel. By November 15, 2022, all Igud Bank customers were transferred to Mizrahi-Tefahot. On 31 December, 2022, the merger process was completed entirely, and "Igud" ceased to exist as an entity.

Banking Services

In 2014, Bank Igud held a market share of about 3% of the banking system in Israel, focusing on commercial activity for high-income earners.

A unique sector the bank operated in was the diamond sector. When the Diamond Exchange was established, diamond trading also took place in the building where the bank's offices were located in Tel Aviv, thus establishing a connection between this sector and the bank. The bank's market share in the diamond sector stood at about 22%, significantly higher than its relative share in the general banking market. As part of the merger process with Mizrahi Bank, the bank's credit portfolio in the diamond sector was sold to the company "Peninsula".
