The company began operation with N12 billion in 2012 with three branches and is classified as a regional branch.
As of today, it has increased to over 45 branches across the federation, an outcome of a development plan which has the bank growing at about 30 per cent over the last five years.
The profit before tax has also grown by an average of about 40 per cent over the last four years with its customer base reaching almost a million across all sectors.
“We have just reached ten years and we are going to have our tenth AGM on the 16th and it will be preceded with a dinner to celebrate our reaching 10 years and the milestones that we have achieved, so we are inviting you to grace that occasion and be part of the celebration.
“For the last two years, we have been consistently paying dividends, though small, it is competitive. During our first dividend, we paid about 800m but from the second one, each year we have been paying a billion after the AGM, the journey has been satisfying for us.
“We have worked with partners to create more than 3,000 units across Nigeria, we have done financing to SMEs to the tune of more than N60bn, with this small number of years, we have also financed more than 4,000 corporates and more than 5,000 SME customers.” he added.
