I have followed intently news and developments surrounding the recent 'marriage' between Access Bank of Nigeria and Diamond Bank. Whatever the basis of this merger, one thing is certain and that is the basis of my topic: a mega-bank is being born.

As stated on their Twitter handle, Access Bank states that with this combintion, Access Bank and Diamond Bank will have almost 700 branches and 3,100 ATMs to serve Nigerians.

This will make the new mega-bank have the widest bank and ATM network among all the Nigerian banks. That is a wow!

My only hope is if the management of the mother Access Bank can continue to incorporate their excellent corporate culture and business strategy to re-brand the new bride into their superb ecosystem, the new megabank will take the lead!

What do you think?

This is why banks mismanage clients knowing quite well that dey merge wit another in future. Fin-institutions need to stop tossing clients up-&-down Even skybank in space of time has turn to "polaris" or whatever junk it is now called (I just pity their shareholders investment).

The last time I received dividend from Union Bank of Nigeria was 2009. Just of recent I discovered they have outsourced their registrar to one lame (meristem) without even sending a news letter to all shareholders. :what: most fin-sectors in Nigeria suck. If this how financial sectors in developed nations misbehave, the likes of Warren buffet, George Soro, would have have died of cardiac arrest a vanished investment can cause. :cries:
