Diamond Trust Bank (DTB), a leading regional bank, listed on the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) is streamlining its leadership structure to accelerate growth across East Africa.
The strategic corporate reorganisation plan includes appointing a dedicated CEO for DTB Kenya, while Nasim Devji remains Group CEO.
This strategic move aims to achieve 10 million customers by 2026. Mrs. Devji will focus on building DTB’s regional presence and enhancing customer experience through digitalization.
DTB Kenya will recruit a Country CEO to report to Mrs. Devji, alongside existing Country CEOs for Uganda, Tanzania, and Burundi.
“The Country CEO for DTB Kenya, along with the current Country CEOs for DTB Uganda, DTB Tanzania, and DTB Burundi, will report to and work closely with me [Mrs Nasim Devji] to ensure the smooth functioning and continued success of DTB in each country,” she said.
“We believe that this decision will bring immense value to our organisation, enabling us to seize new opportunities, develop new relationships and navigate the ever-evolving banking landscape more effectively.”
Uganda recently appointed Godfrey Sebaana as its Country CEO.
DTB’s growth strategy centres on becoming a customer-centric, top-tier, digitally-driven bank in East Africa. Sustainability and social impact remain core values for DTB, an Aga Khan Development Network institution.
Currently, Diamond Trust Bank has 84 branches in Kenya, 36 branches in Uganda, 29 branches in Tanzania and 4 branches in Burundi.
