Jaiz Bank Unveils New Corporate Identity, Targets N200 Billion Capital Base
Jaiz Bank, Nigeria's pioneer non-interest financial institution, has unveiled a new corporate identity as part of a strategic move to modernize its brand and expand its reach. This announcement was made during a press briefing at the bank's corporate headquarters in Abuja.
Key Highlights of the Announcement:
New Brand Identity: The bank's rebranding includes a new logo, a refreshed color palette, and a new tagline: "With You for Life." The new colors—deep blue, vibrant yellow, and grey—are intended to symbolize trust, optimism, and sophistication, respectively.
Recapitalization Target: The bank's Managing Director and CEO, Dr. Haruna Musa, stated an ambitious plan to significantly increase the bank's capital base. While the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has set a N20 billion minimum capital requirement for non-interest banks (which Jaiz Bank has already surpassed ahead of the 2026 deadline), the bank is aiming much higher. Their plan is to raise their capital to:
A minimum of N100 billion within the next one year.
A minimum of N200 billion within the next three years (by 2028).
Purpose of Recapitalization: This aggressive capital expansion plan is intended to support the bank's vision for regional expansion across Africa. Dr. Musa noted that the bank has already received invitations from regulatory authorities in other countries, such as Ghana and Sierra Leone.
Beyond Aesthetics: The CEO emphasized that the rebranding is more than just a cosmetic change. It reflects the bank's commitment to enhancing its digital and operational infrastructure and reaffirming its core principles of ethical, inclusive, and customer-focused banking.
