The award recognizes a leading pan-African banking network, a Moroccan Group with an extensive portfolio of business lines and brands with operations in around thirty countries in Africa, Europe, Asia and North America, employing more than 15,000 people around the world, with a network of 1,800 points of sale serving more than 6 million customers, BOA said in a statement.

The exceptional circumstances surrounding the year 2020 have been a powerful lever for the Group, as Bank of Africa continued its Digital Transformation and developed its Online Banking solutions for its customers, it added.
