Recently, Access Bank explained why it did not submit its Half-Year Financial Statement for the period ended June 2019 before the deadline set by the Nigerian bourse.

The lender in a statement sent to the Nigeria Stock Exchange disclosed its merger with Diamond Bank caused the delay in submission of its Half-Year 2019 Financial Result. It was reported that the integration of both businesses made it impossible for the bank to meet the deadline.

Access Bank and Diamond Bank had informed the public of their consolidation plan late last year, however, the merger didn’t happen until this year. After the merger, Access Bank kept the name while the logo was changed to infuse the identity of Diamond Bank. The consolidation of both banks made Access Bank the largest bank in Nigeria by customer size.
