Nedbank - Professional banking assistance

Bank with the best for ample benefits and convenience.

Nedbank's history dates back to the early 19th century with the founding of the Cape of Good Hope Bank in 1831.

Following sequential branding and organisational changes, from The Nederlandsche Bank voor Zuid-Africa to the Netherlands Bank of South Africa (NBSA), to the Nedcor Group in the 1980s, Nedbank Group was formed in 2003.

Their manifestation in South Africa and beyond

Nedbank Group’s principal market lay in South Africa, with this being said, they were excited about their continued expectation of expanding to the rest of Africa. Their vision is to be Africa’s most respected bank, striving for excellence in all that they do.

They have representatives in Angola and Kenya, and their presence has already been in six countries namely Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Mozambique, Malawi, Swaziland, and Namibia making those six subsidiaries owned by Nedbank in the Southern African Development Community (SADC).

They have one of the largest banking networks

Embracing more than 2000 branches in 39 countries, they follow a partnership method and concluded an estimated gain of 20% shareholding in Ecobank Transnational Incorporated (ETI) in 2014, permitting a one-bank involvement to their consumers across the largest banking network in Africa.

In 2012 the Nedbank App Suite won the MTN Consumer App award of the year, in the same year Nedbank was recognised by Euromoney as being the best bank in South Africa, followed by Financial Times in 2013 The Banker magazine named Nedbank the bank of the year.
