Reflecting on the bank's achievements in 2023, Asante highlighted the numerous awards received, including the top position among financial institutions at the Ghana Club 100 awards. FBNBank moved up 45 places in the overall company rankings, securing the 10th position compared to the 55th in the previous year. Other accolades included the Employee Empowerment Excellence Award, Gold Award for Financial Services, Bank of the Year, and Ethical Leadership Award, among others.
Asante also mentioned the expansion with a new branch at Abeka-Lapaz and the ongoing Akye Deposit and Win Promotion, reinforcing FBNBank's commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction.
