Access Bank Expands with Acquisition of Angolan Bank

Access Bank Expands with Acquisition of Angolan Bank

Access Bank, a subsidiary of Access Holdings, has recently made a strategic move to further dominate the African banking space by acquiring a majority stake in Angolan Bank, Finibanco Angola S.A.

This acquisition marks the latest in a series of ambitious expansion endeavors undertaken by Access Bank, having acquired more than three banks in three African countries over the past four years.

Analysts view this move as a significant step towards solidifying Access Bank’s position as a leading player in the African financial sector.

The announcement of the acquisition was made in a notice filed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange on Thursday, July 13, 2023.

Access Holdings had previously disclosed the deal in October of last year and stated that it had successfully obtained regulatory clearance in both Nigeria and Angola, paving the way for the transaction to proceed.

Herbert Wigwe, the Chief Executive Officer of Access Bank, expressed his optimism about the completion of the transaction and highlighted the progress made in integration planning.

He emphasized the bank’s intention to leverage its expansive distribution network, state-of-the-art technology, and robust risk and governance practices to cater to high-growth businesses and the expanding consumer sector in Angola.

“Our plan is to act as a positive catalyst, fostering greater innovation and promoting the development of the financial sector in Angola,” stated Wigwe.

He further added, “This aligns with our strategic growth objectives in the broader South African Development Community, while also delivering significant value to our stakeholders.”

Access Bank’s aggressive expansion efforts in Africa reflect its commitment to capturing emerging opportunities in the continent’s thriving economies.

By acquiring Finibanco Angola S.A., the bank aims to solidify its presence in Angola, one of Africa’s key markets, and capitalize on the country’s potential for economic growth.

As Access Bank continues to assert its dominance in the African banking landscape, industry observers eagerly await the impact of this latest acquisition on the bank’s future trajectory and its broader influence in the region
