RMB Namibia has been announced as Best Foreign Exchange Bank in the country for the 24th annual Global Finance’s World's Best Foreign Exchange Banks as part of the Gordon Platt Foreign Exchange Awards.
This award celebrates excellence and innovation in foreign exchange banking services. This latest accolade is again a testament to RMB's unwavering commitment to provide exceptional customer service and solutions that fit their clients’ diverse needs in a dynamic global environment.
The criteria for this award category include “market share, number and size of deals, service and advice, structuring capabilities, distribution network, efforts to address market conditions, innovation, pricing, after-market performance of underwritings and market reputation,” as stated by Global Finance magazine.
“This achievement reflects the hard work and dedication of our team and our ongoing commitment to meeting the evolving needs of our clients in the international marketplace. We are honoured to be recognised for our exceptional, fit-for-purpose foreign exchange services that help our clients to confidently navigate market volatility and keep them relevant in today’s market, and beyond," says RMB Namibia CEO, Philip Chapman.
RMB’s product enhancements, innovation and leading foreign exchange services expertise have enabled growth of sustainable value within their clients’ businesses.
Adds Chapman: “Nothing is more important to us than excellent client service. This award is not achieved by individuals, but through deliberate teamwork across various teams within the bank who have specialist knowledge of the Namibian economic landscape. RMB Namibia’s multi-platform products and services have evolved along with our clients’ needs for increasingly sophisticated financial services.”
Global Finance winners span across 87 countries, territories, and districts, and seven regions and multiple global categories. The Gordon Platt Foreign Exchange Awards honours the late expert journalist with over 40 years of financial writing experience. Winners will be awarded in London in 2024.
