The Emir of Zazzau in Kaduna State, Ahmed Bamali, has urged The Alternative Bank to strengthen ties with Zazzau Emirate for sustainable economic growth.
The Emir stated this during the grand inauguration of TAB’s first physical branch in Zaria, Kaduna State.
The monarch urged the bank to establish an unbreakable bond with the people of Zazzau Emirate.
He envisioned “a new economic era where ethical financial principles harmonise with the cherished values of the emirate, fostering entrepreneurial endeavours and elevating the economic landscape”.
He praised the bank for its impactful role as a non-interest banking institution, driving economic growth through sustainable practices, responsible investment, and financial decisions.
Bamali noted that the non-interest banking institution would promote economic inclusivity, risk-sharing, and adherence to the principles of equality and cooperation.
The Regional Head of North-Central Sales, Products, and Propositions, The Alternative Bank, Umar Umar remarked that the bank had emerged as one of the leading non-interest banking entities in the country.
Umar highlighted The Alternative Bank’s global reach as a fully digital bank; offering services across Nigeria and beyond through digital channels and acknowledging the enduring partnership with Zaria’s community.
He expressed confidence that the bank’s business would benefit customers in the region through this new branch.
Reflecting on the bank’s decade-long journey from a window in Sterling Bank Limited to a standalone non-interest bank, Umar stated it grew its initial capital of N500m to over N50bn.
