FBC Bank swallows Building Society in year-end merger

FBC Holdings has received official approval to merge its banking and building society subsidiaries. The consolidation between FBC Bank Limited and FBC Building Society becomes effective at the end of December. Under the plan, the building society's banking assets and liabilities will transfer to the bank, while its property portfolio moves to FBC Properties.

The group stated that this internal restructuring aims to streamline operations and strengthen its financial services platform. Both entities were well capitalized prior to the merger, exceeding statutory requirements. Following the asset transfers, the building society will cease to exist as a separate legal entity.

Leadership emphasized that the merger does not change the group's shareholding structure or financial outlook. They anticipate enhanced operational efficiency and simpler regulatory compliance. The group will continue providing updates as the integration progresses, having consulted closely with regulators for a smooth transition. Total group assets were reported at over twenty-one billion ZiG last June.
