The Banker’s Country Awards reflect the best overall performance by institutions in countries across the globe. The awards, decided by our global editorial team, assess not only the latest results and performance data of the banks but also take account of the use of technology, innovation and major strategic developments that impact on the banks’ long-term prospects and market positioning. The Bank of the Year Award acknowledges both the quantitative and qualitative achievements of banks and represents our best assessment of the best banks in 124 countries.
