5 graphs that visualize how Centenary Bank grew sixfold from a UGX 807.2 bn to a UGX4.8 trillion bank in 12 years! In 2010, when Fabian Kasi took over the leadership of Centenary Bank, it was that quiet bank, that preferred not to say much. It was frequently dwarfed and outshouted by its international competitors, Stanbic, Standard Chartered and Barclays (now Absa Bank). Everyone knew it as that Catholic bank that seemed to have a branch in every town, but not much else was known about it. But just because it didn’t make as much ‘noise’, it didn’t mean it was that small. From its inconspicuous and humble headquarters at Entebbe Road, the bank had by the end of 2010 managed to work its way up to become the 5th largest bank by balance sheet size.
