As a member and shareholder of the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) since inception in 1954, the firm has shared a rich heritage in the fortunes of one of Africa’s leading stock markets. ABC Capital was acquired by African Banking Corporation Limited (ABC Bank) in 2008.

ABC CAPITAL BANK UGANDA The Bank started its journey in 1993, as a deposit taking financial institution then trading by the name Capital Finance Corporation Limited, licensed and supervised by Bank of Uganda under the Financial Institutions Act 2004. In 1999, in order to diversify its products range, the institution applied to the Bank of Uganda for a Forex Bureau License which allowed it to establish a fully owned subsidiary under the name Capital Finance Corporation Forex Bureau. With this solid background, Capital Finance Corporation Limited looked forward to the next momentous step of converting into a fully fledged commercial bank. As advised by Bank of Uganda, Capital Finance Corporation Limited sought a strategic banking partner and identified one in ABC Bank, a fast growing, Kenyan-incorporated private bank of 25 years. Through the tireless efforts of the Directors of Capital Finance Corporation Limited, and after adhering to all the formalities and stringent requirements of the Bank of Uganda, ABC Capital Bank Limited Uganda came into being. It was licensed by Bank of Uganda as a commercial bank on 26th February 2010. With a four branch network in Uganda, the Bank is aggressively growing both in retail as well as corporate banking business.
