The Shareholders of Jaiz Bank Plc have approved a total dividend of N883.9m representing 3 kobo per share for the 2020 financial year at the 9th Annual General Meeting of the Bank, held at Fraser Suites, Abuja on Wednesday 23rd June 2021.

He added that, despite the challenging economic environment that was aggravated by COVID 19 pandemic, Gross Earnings rose by 33% from N14.70 billion in 2019 to N19.60 billion in 2020.

According to the audited financial results for the 2020 financial year, Jaiz Bank Plc recorded a Profit Before Tax (PBT) of N3.10 billion, a 45% increase over the N2.11 billion recorded in the previous year. Similarly, there was an increase in the Profit After Tax from N2.44 billion in the preceding year to N2.90 billion for the year ended December 31, 2020, which reflects the continuous growth in profitability witnessed by the Bank over the last 3 years.
