Overview

As of December 2019, GT Bank Uganda had assets valued at UGX:225 billion (approx. US$58.22 million) with shareholders equity of UGX:38 billion (approx. US$9.83 million). That calendar year, the institution made UGX:2 billion (approx. $518,000) in pre-tax profit and UGX:1 billion (approx. $259,000) in after-tax profit, the first time the institution was profitable in the previous 12 years. GT Bank Uganda is a subsidiary of Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB), a Nigerian financial services  conglomerate headquartered in Nigeria, with subsidiaries in several West, Central and East African countries.[4]

History

GT Bank (Uganda) was founded in 2008 as Fina Bank (Uganda), a subsidiary of the Fina Bank Group based in Kenya. In 2013, the Group sold 70 percent shareholding to GTB for a cash consideration of US$100 million.[5][6] In January 2014, the bank rebranded to its current name to reflect its current shareholding.[6][7]

Reclassification to Tier II class

In Q2 2022, the Ugandan Minister of Finance, in consultation with the Bank of Uganda, signed new regulations raising minimum capital levels for commercial banks from UGX:25 billion (approx. US$6.7 million) to UGX:150 billion (approx. US$40 million) by 30 June 2024. Due to its inability to raise the minimum capital requirements as stipulated, GTBank Uganda was authorized to downgrade to a Tier II credit financial institution, whose minimum capital requirements of UGX:25 billion (approx. US$6.8 million) it met, at that time.[8][9]

Branch Network

As of April 2024, GT Bank Uganda has a network of branches at the following locations:[10]
