African financial institution Guaranty Trust Bank (GTBank) reaffirmed its position as a leading global brand following its recognition for good corporate governance at the 2015 African Business Awards held on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly in New York on Sept. 23-24.
The African Business Awards, now in its seventh year, was launched by African Business magazine, published by IC Publications. It has grown into a platform that celebrates excellence in African business by recognizing individuals and companies that are driving Africa’s rapidly transforming economy and creating new economic opportunities for citizens and communities all over the continent.
“We are proud of all our winners, their work and accomplishments in various sectors show what can be achieved on the African continent with hard work and single-minded determination," IC Publications Publisher and Managing Director
Omar Ben Yedder said. "In winning this year’s award, GTBank stands out in Africa and the rest of the world as a benchmark for good corporate governance, business ethics and adherence to international best practices.”
The GTBank brand is regarded by industry watchers as one of the best run financial institutions across its subsidiary countries and serves as a role model within the financial service industry due to its bias for world-class corporate governance standards, excellent service delivery and innovation.
