Access Bank bags Women Market Champion Award

By on October 7, 2015

Access Bank Plc has received the Global Banking Alliance for Women Market Champion 2015 Award.

A statement from the bank also restated that its ‘W’ awards seek to recognise and celebrate Nigerian women at home and in the Diaspora who have impacted the Nigerian economy and their immediate environment positively.

It further stated that during the just concluded 14th Annual Summit of the Global Banking Alliance (GBA) for Women in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Access Bank bagged the award for the Women’s Market Champion 2015 alongside banks across the world that had implemented successful women market programs.

“This award is coming on the heels of the one year anniversary of the Bank’s W initiative, which was launched in Nigeria and subsequently in the Bank’s subsidiaries in Ghana, Rwanda and Zambia. W is the home for everything Access Bank offers to women,” it added.

The GBA is one of the leading international consortium of financial institutions and other organisations interested in building women’s wealth worldwide.

Chief Executive Officer of GBA, Inez Murray who presented the award to Group Head, Inclusive Banking, Access Bank, OpeWemi-Jones, commended the women program at Access Bank and reiterated that the Summit was designed to deepen the sharing of know-how among GBA member banks as well as create the opportunity to network and support one another as a community of practitioners.
