Atlas Mara Zambia is borne out of a merger between BancABC Zambia and Finance Bank Zambia. The new brand was unveiled, by Honourable Felix Mutati, Minister of Finance and National Planning on the 3rd of November 2017.
The new brand is being introduced to the BancABC Zambia and FBZ branch network across Zambia. The rebrand represents, a new era for our operations in Zambia as it positions us, as a positive disruptive force in the market, by bringing to bear the full weight of Atlas Mara’s innovation, capital, and expertise.
The amalgamation of the two banks has resulted in a stronger, bigger and innovative bank with a footprint of 64 branches, 22 agencies and 176 ATMs, spread across
Zambia’s ten provinces. Atlas Mara has a combined wealth of over 90 years of banking history and experience.
We would like to assure our customers that the new brand will have a positive impact on the running of our day to day business and on the services we offer to you, our valued customers. We acknowledge that during the integration, we faced some challenges that inconvenienced our customers. Atlas Mara is committed to serve our customers the best way possible. Thus, we would like to once again express our gratitude to all the customers who continuously make us their bank of choice.
We remain thankful.
