Diamond Bank Joins World Economic Forum as Adviser

Diamond Bank became the first Nigerian company and second African entity to join the World Economic Forum Adviser program. The Forum seeks to shape global, regional, and industry agendas to advance its mission of improving the world’s condition.

Diamond Bank’s Beta Proposition and Diamond Yello Account initiatives have significantly increased financial inclusion among Nigeria’s previously unbanked population. The bank emphasizes technology and data as critical tools for this progress.

Diamond Bank is the sole Nigerian institution partnered with the UK’s Department for International Development on financial inclusion efforts. The bank also runs Building Entrepreneurs Today and Diamond Woman programs to support entrepreneurs and women.

Diamond Bank’s leadership in financial inclusion aligns with Nigeria’s large population of 180 million people, where nearly half lack bank access. The bank highlights its role in promoting Nigeria’s economic fundamentals and recent advancements.
