Integrity is a core value in all our financial transactions, ensuring that our word remains an irrevocable bond in all our transactions. We take seriously the fact that we must engage the community where we do our business and carry our financial transactions in a sustainable way that protects the environment, so that future generations meet a viable planet.
We do not take lightly the need for our customers to conduct their business in a secure environment, using secured processes. We have invested in IT systems and processes to ensure maximum protection for all customer transactions with high-level controls that minimize losses from fraud and errors

As a financial institution, we fully realize that we have to take risks; however, we are conscious of the need to manage the level of risks we have to take, without compromising the massive trust of our customers. In line with this, we have invested heavily in a high-level enterprise risk management system that minimizes the bank’s exposure to loss in its lending activities. The bank manages its finances closely, keeping a close eye on its capital to avoid any capital-eroding losses. We are constantly replenishing the bank’s capital to keep it at par with fast expanding business across Africa.
