About Standard Bank Namibia
Standard Bank opened its first commercial branch in August 1915 in Lüderitz,
making it one of Namibia's oldest companies today.
Over the years, our customers and clients have come to rely on us to understand their needs, employ people
with strong knowledge of local business conditions and connect borrowers with lenders. This vision created
the foundation for the kind of bank it would become and the qualities which customers and clients expect.
We are proud to be part of Standard Bank Group, a large financial services organisation rooted in Africa
and with operations in 20 countries.
From humble beginnings of three branches, today, Standard Bank operates a distribution network
of 63 branches and 372 ATMs across Namibia. Our workforce has grown to over 1500 employees
and our roots have extended deep into the fabric of Namibian society.
Standard Bank is committed to making banking available to all Namibians.
To this end, we have evolved and adapted together with our customers and clients, developing
a rich heritage while nurturing and protecting our reputation. We uphold high standards of
corporate governance, are committed to advancing the principles and practices of
sustainable development and are inspired to advance national development objectives.
We are commercially and morally bound to serve Namibia and her people in return for
the long-term profitable growth we aim to deliver as a leading financial services group
in the country.
We are committed to moving Namibia forward and driving her growth.

and growth over
the long term is
