The Banker's Bank of the Year Awards are regarded as the Oscars of the banking industry. For almost a century, The Banker has been the world’s leading monthly journal of record for the banking industry. The aim of the awards programme is to highlight industry-wide excellence within the banking community globally.

Our judging panel select winning banks based on performance, innovation, added customer value and leadership in society. The Banker selects one winning bank for each of the countries and regions judged and wins on the investment, transaction and neo banks categories.

The recognition of being recognised at the Bank of the Year Awards is a testament to the strong management,  business model and prudent risk approach of your bank and is watched closely by major corporations and strategic financial partners as a guide to who to do business with.
