FBNQuest Merchant Bank Limited has completed its corporate rebranding and will now operate under the new name, Quest Merchant Bank Limited, following approval from regulatory authorities.
The bank’s statement on Monday confirmed that all necessary corporate and regulatory clearances have been obtained, ensuring that the rebranding does not affect the institution’s legal status, operations, management, or service offerings.
Brandspur Banking News Desk reports that the rebrand follows FBN Holdings Plc’s 2024 sale of its 100 per cent equity stake in FBNQuest Merchant Bank to EverQuest Acquisition LLP. With regulatory approval for the new name, the bank affirmed that existing contracts, client relationships, and obligations remain valid and enforceable.
Quest Merchant Bank remains a fully licensed merchant bank regulated by the Central Bank of Nigeria and the Securities and Exchange Commission. The institution continues to provide a comprehensive range of merchant banking, advisory, and capital market services to its clients.
Acting Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Afolabi Olorode, described the name change as a strategic milestone reflecting the bank’s resilience, strong track record, and long-term growth ambitions. He emphasised that despite the rebranding, the bank’s commitment to its clients, stakeholders, and regulators remains unchanged.
The transition involves updating the bank’s branding, digital platforms, and communications to align with the new identity. Some legacy references may temporarily persist across certain channels as the rollout progresses.
Quest Merchant Bank’s rebranding marks a deliberate repositioning aimed at strengthening its market presence while continuing to deliver trusted financial services across Nigeria’s capital markets and merchant banking sectors.
