LAGOS, NIGERIA – Access Bank Plc has achieved a significant milestone in its expansion strategy by securing an approval-in-principle to establish a subsidiary in Namibia.

This development marks another step in the bank’s ongoing efforts to strengthen its presence across Africa.

The recent approval from the Namibian authorities allows Access Bank Plc to move forward with plans to set up operations in the Southern African country.

As one of Africa’s leading financial institutions, the move aligns with Access Bank’s mission to provide world-class banking services across the continent and contribute to the economic growth of countries where it operates.

Access Bank’s expansion into Namibia is part of its broader strategy to increase its footprint beyond Nigeria and West Africa, targeting key regions across the continent.

With a growing presence in East and Southern Africa, the establishment of a subsidiary in Namibia will position the bank to better serve its customers, offering a range of financial products and services tailored to the local market.

By expanding into Namibia, Access Bank is poised to strengthen its influence in the African banking sector, reinforcing its role as a major player in facilitating cross-border trade and economic collaboration.

The Bank’s entry into the Namibian market will also foster innovation in the financial services industry, bringing digital banking solutions and other innovations to a wider customer base.

With approval-in-principle secured, Access Bank is set to commence the necessary regulatory processes to establish its Namibian subsidiary.

This move not only aligns with its growth ambitions but also demonstrates its commitment to fostering economic development and financial inclusion across Africa.
