Currently, Zenith Bank’s issued and fully paid share capital stands at N15.698 billion, complemented by a share premium of N255.047 billion. To meet the CBN’s new stipulation, the bank requires an additional N229.225 billion. Despite its robust historical performance, the CBN’s new capital requirement has necessitated this substantial capital raise. According to Dame Dr. Adaora Umeoji, OON, Group Managing Director/CEO of Zenith Bank, this capital infusion will help meet regulatory requirements and enhance the bank’s information technology infrastructure.

The recognitions celebrate the bank’s tremendous feats and milestones in financial performance, financial inclusion, corporate governance, and sustainability.
