Wema Bank, in a joint celebration yesterday, announced the commemoration of Wema Bank’s 79th year and ALAT’s 7th year anniversaries. This significant occasion not only marks nearly eight decades of outstanding service and innovation in Nigeria’s banking sector but also celebrates the seven years of digital excellence achieved with ALAT.
Since its establishment in 1945, Wema Bank has consistently led financial innovation, continually adapting to meet the changing needs of its customers. Over the years, the bank has transformed from a regional institution to a national one, continuously adjusting to meet its customers’ dynamic requirements and establishing itself as a trusted and reliable partner for millions of individuals and businesses across Nigeria.
According to Mr. Moruf Oseni, the MD/CEO of Wema Bank, the bank’s journey from being Nigeria’s oldest indigenous bank to pioneering Africa’s first fully digital bank, ALAT, is a testament to resilience and transformation.
“At 79, Wema Bank stands stronger than ever, a milestone made possible by the support of our customers and employees. We extend our gratitude to them for believing in the Wema vision, entrusting their financial security to us, and allowing us to contribute to their personal and professional growth.
