Access Bank ready to meet African entreprene­urs financial needs

- From Sunday Michael Ogwu

Access Bank Plc has assured African businesses and entreprene­urs of its readiness to fill in the gap created by the big global banks in service rendition to Africa.

Group Managing Director/ CEO of Access Bank Plc, Mr Herbert Wigwe disclosed this while speaking to a high level business and political audience in Windsor, United Kingdom recently.

Speaking at the Access Polo Challenge Day 2017 in the UK, Mr Wigwe noted that “we are an emerging global bank and the bank’s capacity as a leading brand in the continent and globally will be a perfect fit for the entreprene­urs as the global banks face business objectives in other parts of the world outside of Africa”.

According to The Banker’s 2017 Top 1000 World Banks, as the leading banks in the world are not in Africa but in China, USA, UK, Europe, Japan, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Middle East and India, it makes the availabili­ty of Access Bank to entreprene­urs and businesses in Africa ideal.

Globally and through its UK subsidiary, the bank operates with the objective to service its clientele through excellent customer service and innovative solutions in private banking, trade finance, personal banking, and business banking amongst others.

Access Bank Plc has grown from strength to strength and its excellent operations has been adjudged by many national and internatio­nal award bodies including BusinessDa­y Award and The Banker Award of the Financial Times Group London, UK which rated the Access Bank as the Bank of the Year in Nigeria.
