Stanbic Bank Uganda has clinched the prestigious title of “Most Admired Financial Services” Brand at the 2024 Brand Africa Awards. The recognition was announced during a high-profile event held recently in Nairobi, Kenya, which celebrated Africa’s leading private and public organizations.

The accolade comes from Brand Africa, an intergenerational movement established in 2011 to inspire a brand-led renaissance across the continent, aimed at enhancing Africa’s competitiveness and creating a positive global image. The annual awards, based on extensive research across the continent, recognize brands that are most admired by consumers, both locally and globally.

The brand Stanbic Bank Uganda is reflected in its purpose; ‘Uganda is our home; we drive her Growth’.

Brand Africa awarded the best local and global brands admired by people from the 2024 Brand Africa 100, after conducting a continent-wide survey in collaboration with GeoPoll and Kantar.

The event was attended by top decision-makers from several sectors including business, humanitarian, media, and government.

Speaking on behalf of the bank, Kenneth Agutamba, the Head, Corporate Communications expressed gratitude for the recognition. He reaffirmed the bank’s firm commitment to strive for best financial services.
