FINA BANK RWANDA BACKGROUND
In 2004, FINA Bank, acquired a formerly insolvent privately-owned commercial bank known as BACAR, transforming it into a major commercial bank. The bank which had obtained a full banking license in 1983 and was one of the first privately owned banks formed in the country, had been under central bank supervision due to managerial issues. Following extensive renovations, the bank was formally launched in 2008 with the redesign and renovation of the new Head Office along with the formation of the new SME department.
The bank's principal activities comprise corporate banking, international trade financing and retail banking financial services and products to corporate and established medium and small businesses as well as salaried workers.
