As a state-owned bank, BGK played a significant role in financing the economic reconstruction and modernization of the Second Polish Republic, supporting infrastructure, industrial, and housing investments, among other projects.
In Lviv, BGK had one of its most important branches, operating in the former National Bank building on Kościuszki Street. Professional and social organizations also developed among the bank's numerous employees, as evidenced by the badge on display.
