Zenith Bank Plc has emerged as ‘Bank of the Year, Nigeria’ in The Banker’s Bank of the Year Awards 2024. The award, announced by The Banker Magazine, Financial Times Group, United Kingdom, during the awards ceremony held in London on December 4, 2024, recognises the bank’s strong management, sound business model and strategy, and approach to sustainability and ESG banking practices.

The Banker’s ‘Bank of the Year’ accolade is among the banking industry’s most coveted and widely regarded awards.

Often contested by the world’s leading financial institutions, the winners span Africa, Asia-Pacific, Central and Eastern Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, North America, and Western Europe.

Commenting on the award, the Group Managing Director/Chief Executive of Zenith Bank Plc, Dame (Dr.) Adaora Umeoji, OON, said, “We are delighted and honoured to have been recognized as the Bank of the Year, Nigeria, in The Banker’s Bank of the Year Awards 2024.

‘’This award is a testament to the unwavering trust and loyalty of our esteemed customers, the unparalleled leadership and guidance of the Board and Management, and our staff’s hard work and dedication.

‘’It also reflects our bank’s steadfast commitment to delivering excellent services to our customers and contributing to the growth and development of the Nigerian economy. We will continue to invest in innovative technologies, expand our range of products and services, and maintain our commitment to exceptional customer service to sustain our position as Nigeria’s Number One Bank.”

She lauded the Founder and Chairman of Zenith Bank Plc, Jim Ovia, CFR, for his visionary role in laying the foundation for a reputable, dominant, globally recognised financial institution known for innovation, superior performance, and the creation of premium value for all stakeholders.

In November 2024, Zenith Bank commissioned its Paris Branch following the final approval by France’s banking regulator, the Autorité de Contrôle Prudentiel et de Résolution (ACPR). This is part of the bank’s global expansion strategy and commitment to serving clients wherever their businesses are worldwide.

These include being recognised as the Number One Bank in Nigeria by Tier-1 Capital for the fifteenth consecutive year in the 2024 Top 1000 World Banks Ranking, published by The Banker Magazine.

The Bank was also awarded the Bank of the Year (Nigeria) in The Banker’s Bank of the Year Awards for 2020 and 2022 and Most Sustainable Bank, Nigeria in the International Banker 2023 and 2024 Banking Awards.

The Bank’s commitment to excellence saw it named the Most Valuable Banking Brand in Nigeria in the Banker Magazine Top 500 Banking Brands for 2020 and 2021, Retail Bank of the Year for three consecutive years from 2020 to 2022, and Bank of the Year, 2023, at the BusinessDay Banks and Other Financial Institutions (BAFI) Awards.
