Sterling Bank Will Change Its Name

The transfer of Sterling Bank Plc from a core banking organization to a holding company has been authorized by shareholders. According to experts, the action will enable the financial institution to boost its subsidiaries, particularly its recently launched Islamic banking activity.

The Sterling bank will eventually use the name Sterling Financial Holdings Company, according to a registration it published on the website of the Nigerian Exchange Limited.

A week after the bank called a shareholder meeting on a court’s directive, its board made an announcement yesterday. The bank will have the chance to participate in various financial services industries, such as fintech, asset management, and pension among others, as well as gain control of businesses in which it now has a sizable interest.
