Ikere Microfinance Bank Limited stands as a beacon of financial services excellence in Nigeria, dedicated to empowering small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), supporting local farmers, assisting low-income earners, and fostering financial literacy among students. We take pride in providing comprehensive financial solutions to meet the diverse needs of our valued clients.
Our journey began on the 19th of February in 1992 when we were officially incorporated, receiving Certificate No 077. Subsequently, we were granted an operating license with the registration No RC 167444 in January 2002. It marked a significant milestone in our pursuit of financial inclusion and sustainable growth. On the 1st of January 2008, we underwent a pivotal transformation, aligning with the directive of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) that mandated all Community banks to convert to Microfinance banks. This transition positioned us to serve our customers more effectively and efficiently, enabling us to extend our reach and impact.
Since our transformation into a Microfinance bank, we have remained dedicated to our mission of helping individuals and businesses achieve their dreams. Our commitment to financial empowerment is further amplified by our experienced and diverse management team. Our team comprises professionals from various backgrounds, notably the banking sector, ensuring a wealth of knowledge and expertise at the service of our customers.
