HNB PLC was ranked among the Top 1,000 World Banks 2020 for the fourth consecutive year by the UK’s Banker magazine.
The Banker is the world’s premier banking and finance resource, providing global financial intelligence since 1926. The Banker’s Top 1000 World Banks ranking has been setting the industry benchmark since 1970, providing comprehensive intelligence about the health and wealth of the banking sector. In 2020, HNB climbed up in its global rankings by an impressive 39 positions.
“We are honoured to be ranked again among the world’s most respected financial institutions and to have made strong improvements in our overall rankings. Particularly at the conclusion of a year fraught with challenges and more expected in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, HNB has displayed resilience and an outstanding capacity to adapt in the face of volatility. In this backdrop, the recognition in the Top 1000 ranking is ample testimony to the strength and stability of the bank,” said HNB Managing Director/CEO, Jonathan Alles.
Notwithstanding the challenging macro conditions, the bank continued to progress on its ambitious transformation journey. The bank’s pivot to digitally enabled products and services continued to gather momentum, as the bank provided customers with convenient, comprehensive and secured options to transact remotely.
