“It demonstrates that our strategy to bank the people and companies is driving investment, trade, and the creation of wealth across Africa, Asia, and the Middle East, has ensured that we continue to lead the market,” Mr Okai said in a statement on Monday.
He said key initiatives recognised for the award includes the bank’s innovative, ‘first in the market’ electronic banking centres across Lusaka, and introduction of the small medium entrepreneurs business debit card.
Other initiatives are fixed income bonds for retail clients, extension of the bancassurance partnership with Sanlam (African Life) for another five years, and continuing to be the only bank in Zambia with night banking and Sunday banking at the flagship Manda Hill branch.
Mr Okai said Euromoney also recognised Standard Chartered’s continued commitment to the communities where it operates such as the bank’s Financial Education curriculum for Zambian youths were it as invested US$ 2 million over the period 2009 to 2017.

you can be the best bank but when people are suffering and the money is as useless as the kwacha, it then becomes a worthless title
