UBN Branch Footprint

UBN’s far-reaching network of ~350(1) branches that caters for both rural and sub-urban regions in Nigeria gives it a competitive advantage

– The bank has a concentration of branches in the South West, the economic hub of Nigeria

– With banking sector reform and current competition in the financial sector, the size of UBN’s branch network will be difficult to replicate

made up of professionals with strong and versatile experience to stabilise and recapitalise the bank.

• The Central Bank of Nigeria’s made an initial $800mm cash injection (in the form of a 7-year, 6% note) into UBN in

2009 to stabilize the institution, and contain the liquidity crisis. This has since been repaid

• CBN guaranteed all inter-bank placements and foreign lines of credit to ensure continued confidence in the banking industry

The Brand

Considered a first generation bank, UBN is one of Nigeria’s oldest and largest commercial banks by assets and size

– Viewed as a national asset/household name in Nigeria

– Strong brand recognition and a loyal customer base

– Customer base mostly made up of people who have grown and stayed with the bank

– Retained significant brand equity despite recent challenges

In order to maintain and grow the customer loyalty and brand recognition enjoyed by the bank, a rebranding drive has been initiated to make the brand more visible

– Post the rebranding exercise, the internal transformation of the bank is also being evidenced externally
