Ecobank Zimbabwe is a locally incorporated and domiciled financial institution offering retail, corporate, and investment banking services. It is designated as a Domestic Systemically Important Bank (D-SIB) within Zimbabwe’s financial sector.

Although the bank’s ultimate parent company is Ecobank Transnational Incorporated (ETI), its share of the group’s total assets and revenues is relatively small. As a result, the bank’s standalone credit profile forms the basis of analysis, with additional consideration given to the potential for support from the wider group.

Last year, Ecobank Zimbabwe received the Ecobank Group Chairman’s Sustainability Award for its contribution to environmental and social progress.

The bank was honoured alongside Ecobank Ghana, which invested US$24 million in partnership with Electrochem Ghana Ltd to rehabilitate and expand salt pans.

Ecobank Zimbabwe’s recognition stemmed from the launch of Ellevate 2.0, a programme supporting youth and women-led entrepreneurs, which resulted in 400 new accounts, US$500 000 in loans, and the connection of over 2 000 small-to-medium enterprises to knowledge-sharing and global trade networks.

Established in 2018, the Group Chairman’s Sustainability Award aims to advance this agenda by recognising innovative and impactful initiatives. The Ecobank Group operates across 35 sub-Saharan African countries, as well as in France, the United Kingdom, the United Arab Emirates and China, serving as a unified gateway for payments, trade, cash management and investment.
