Access Bank Plc has emerged winner of the Best Flow House in Africa accolade in the Euromoney Awards for Excellence 2015, which held at the Natural History Museum in London, on Thursday, July 10.
According to Euromoney, the Best Flow House award is given to honour firms that have demonstrated an ability to excel across the region in the key areas of foreign exchange, equities, rates and credit.
The winning firm must also have shown commitment to providing liquidity and pricing in all market conditions. Also, such firm would have shown leadership in developing and integrating technology into its sales and trading businesses, as well as the importance of research.
Speaking at the presentation ceremony, the group managing director of Access Bank Plc, Mr Herbert Wigwe said, “We are delighted to be presented with this highly coveted award. This is in recognition of our regional expertise and our continuing ability to provide customised currency and fixed income solutions to our customers across Africa.”
This would be the first time a Nigerian bank would be recognised as winner of this highly sought-after award. Access Bank’s win comes in recognition of the bank’s increasing transaction flows across Africa, particularly its dominance in the Nigerian financial markets
