Access Bank Plc has been awarded two major international honours at the 2026 Global Good Governance (3G) Awards, strengthening its reputation as one of Africa’s leading institutions in corporate responsibility, sustainability, and governance excellence.
The bank received the 3G Community Empowerment Award 2026 and the 3G Best Corporate Governance Framework Award 2026, recognising its sustained investment in social impact initiatives and its structured approach to transparency, accountability, and ethical banking practices.
The awards were presented under the Global Good Governance Awards platform organised by Cambridge IFA, following an independent evaluation process that assessed organisations across governance performance, sustainability standards, and social responsibility outcomes.
Brandspur Banking News Desk reports that the recognition was formally announced at an international ceremony held on April 28, 2026, in Singapore, where more than 300 global participants from over 15 countries gathered, including senior government officials, corporate leaders, and representatives from philanthropic organisations.
Access Bank Plc was represented at the event by Mr. Eyitayo Olabode, who received the awards on behalf of Group Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Roosevelt Ogbonna.
According to the bank’s leadership, the recognition reflects its long-standing commitment to responsible banking, inclusive growth, and strong institutional governance structures designed to deliver sustainable value across its operating markets.
The 2026 edition of the awards also featured the Global Good Governance Summit, which explored themes around artificial intelligence governance, sustainability, and ethical leadership, reinforcing the growing global emphasis on responsible innovation in financial services and corporate management.
