Most innovative African bank
The Ecobank and Nedbank groups were jointly awarded Most Innovative Bank of the Year at the 2010 African Banker Awards ceremony held in Washington DC in October 2010. This award recognises the efforts of both Ecobank and Nedbank that have contributed, through innovation, to creating real value for clients doing business across Africa.
Innovations that led to this award include:

Providing a unique advisory service, through LocalKnowledgeAfrica, to corporate clients for expanding and growing their business across the African continent. |
