FNB Namibia was presented with the Bracken Award as the Best Bank in Namibia by The Banker Magazine in London last week. This is the sixth consecutive year that FNB Namibia has walked away with this prestigious accolade and the seventh time it was awarded to FNB Namibia.

The programme acknowledges and promotes industry wide excellence in the global banking community and international judges select only one winning bank for each country which is what makes The Banker “Country Bank of Year Award” such a sought after award. Ian Leyenaar, CEO of FNB Namibia was ecstatic with the achievement and said, “While other Namibian banks have won this award in the past, this is now the sixth year in a row that this great honour has been bestowed on FNB Namibia and this means that we are consistently and constantly delivering on our helpfulness promises to staff, customers and all our stakeholders. “To us this six year success means that we have been the most successful in delivering on the important banking requirements, to all our shareholders, including shareholders, clients, staff, regulators, suppliers, and the broader Namibian community,” he added. Said Leyenaar, “In future, we will continue to build and enhance all our business plans to become even bigger and better for all our stakeholders on our journey of being the local world class financial services provider of choice in Namibia.” Leyenaar thanked the staff, management, board and most importantly the customers for their continued loyal dedication and support.
