Trinidad and Tobago’s Intercommercial Bank Limited (IBL Bank) has officially been renamed to JMMB Bank (T&T) Limited.

The announcement was made at a media briefing at the Bank’s head office in Chaguanas yesterday where the Bank’s branch locations now boast a new look and signage, reflecting the name change.

This rebranding exercise is part of the JMMB Group’s strategic positioning across the Caribbean region, following its 100% acquisition of IBL in 2013.

JMMB initially acquired 50% of IBL in 2004. That transaction placed the Bank under the management of the JMMB Group and in a better position to offer clients a wider range of banking solutions in Trinidad and Tobago.

This introduction of JMMB Bank completes JMMB’s branded presence in the country.

Bank Managing Director and CEO, Nigel Romano, says JMMB Bank is looking forward to providing a new way of banking to Trinbagonians.

He says the “team of banking experts will be a key part of the fulfilment of JMMB’s mandate of becoming the leading bank in the country, by partnering with clients in the achievement of their life goals”.

Romano says as a regional financial group of companies, with operations in Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica and the Dominican Republic, the JMMB Group is perfectly poised to continue on its growth trajectory in T&T.

The CEO says he is excited about this new phase in the Bank’s history and the team’s eagerness to unearth and pass on the value of these new opportunities to its clients.

In reassuring its existing clients, Romano indicated that the bank will remain focused on what truly matters, “the financial health and happiness of all of our clients”.
