Sparisjóður Reykjavíkur og nágrennis (Icelandic pronunciation: [ˈspaːrɪˌsjouːðʏr̥ ˈreiːcaˌviːkʏr̥ ɔːɣ ˈnauˌɣrɛnːɪs], transl. Savings Bank of Reykjavik and Surrounding Areas), often shortened to SPRON was an Icelandic savings bank. It had six branches, all in the Reykjavík capital area. The bank was established March 5, 1932, and was nationalized in 2009 following a major banking and financial crisis in Iceland. Most assets were subsequently moved to Nýja Kaupþing.
