For the second year running, Banque de Tunisie ((BT) has been awarded the prestigious “Bank of the Year – Tunisia” title by The Banker, a premier Financial Times publication. This repeat recognition signals more than a strong annual performance; it affirms the bank’s sustained strategic direction and resilience in a turbulent global financial landscape.
In addition to its solid fundamentals and proven adaptability in a complex operating environment, the award jury highlighted the bank’s systematic digital transformation as a key driver of autonomous growth. Central to this effort is “LABTINNOV,” an in-house research and development lab created to embed innovation into the corporate culture. The initiative goes beyond digitizing processes, aiming to design concrete solutions for the specific needs of businesses and individuals.
The year 2025 also reinforced the bank’s role as a structural pillar of the national economy and a central financier of foreign trade. This influence is supported by optimized management systems, certified under the international MSI 20000 and AML 30000 standards, ensuring transparency, security, and proactive financial risk management.
Operationally, the bank has redesigned its model for greater agility and customer proximity. Its branch network has been reorganized to enhance client relationships and extend its territorial reach. This structural overhaul is paired with a segmented, targeted service offering, tailored to diverse client profiles while maintaining an inclusive ambition for financial accessibility.
This second consecutive award arrives as Banque de Tunisie marks 141 years of history. It stands as a testament to a century-old institution that continues to reinvent itself without compromising its principles. The honor rewards the collective work of teams whose daily commitment builds expertise that is both locally grounded and globally oriented.
Between operational excellence, technological innovation, and contribution to economic development, Banque de Tunisie demonstrates that a responsible and sustainable approach is key to creating lasting value for its clients, stakeholders, and the wider Tunisian ecosystem. In doing so, it charts a determined path of active resilience—proving that a future-oriented modernity can be firmly rooted in a solid, enduring legacy.
