The bank has been operating in Africa since 1949. UBA can be traced to the British and French Bank Limited BFB. Eventually, UBA took over the assets and liabilities of BFB and was incorporated as a limited liability company on 23 February 1961 under the Compliance Ordinance Cap 37 in 1922.<\/p>\n
The bank became public in 1970 following its initial public offer. This IPO made UBA the first bank to be listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange. UBA is publicly traded as “UBA” and it is the first Nigerian-headquartered bank to launch Global Depository Receipts.<\/p>\n
UBA completed one of the biggest mergers in the history of Nigeria\u2019s capital markets when it merged with Standard Trust Bank (STB) Plc in 2005.
