Zambia Industrial Commercial Bank (ZICB), is a commercial bank in Zambia. The bank is one of the commercial banks licensed by the Bank of Zambia, the central bank and national banking regulator.[1]
History
[edit]In November 2016, the Bank of Zambia took possession of the Intermarket Banking Corporation Zambia Limited, a commercial bank, which had become insolvent and unable to meet its financial obligations. In February 2017, the central bank announced that it would re-structure Intermarket Bank, to enable it to re-open.[2]
Subsequently, agreement was reached with the shareholders of the collapsed bank, on how the bank could be re-opened. The National Pension Scheme Authority (NAPSA), a depositor in the collapsed bank opted to convert its ZMW50 million (approximately US$3.5 million) into equity in the restructured institution.[2]
The restructured bank opened for business on 23 October 2018, in Lusaka, Zambia's capital city, with new shareholders and under new management, in a ceremony presided over by the then Minister of Finance, Margaret Mwanakatwe. The restructured bank was named Zambia Industrial Commercial Bank.[3]
