HARARE – CABS has cemented its position as a leader in sustainable banking and digital transformation, securing runner-up positions in both ESG and Digital Innovation categories at Zimbabwe’s 2024 Banks and Banking Survey Awards.
The recognition comes as the African Development Bank (AfDB) prepares a US$100 million ESG facility to support CABS and parent company Old Mutual Zimbabwe.
