Talaat Harb Pacha (1867–1941) was a leading Egyptian entrepreneur and founder of Banque Misr, and its group of companies, in May 1920.

The idea of establishing Banque Misr first emerged in 1907, when Talaat Harb contributed 100 EGP to the establishment of Al Ahly SC. He was a renowned nationalist industrialist, he published a book calling for the founding of a national bank with Egyptian financing. He called attention to the idle funds invested by foreigners for purposes other than the interests of Egypt. He continued advocating this call on all occasions, with untiring persistence. Harb co-founded a newspaper, Al Jarida, which was the official organ of the Umma Party. In 1911, he published another book titled "The Egyptian Economic Reform and the Nation's Bank Project ", where he explained his economic idea.

The bank, under the leadership of Talaat Harb, established a number of companies operating in various sectors, such as textiles, shipping, publishing, movie making, insurance and the first national airline Egypt Air.
