Re: Access Bank To Shut Down 346 Banks Nationwide (List) by chigoizie7(m): 10:23pm On May 02, 2020

From the comments I am reading here. I have come to a conclusion that most people do not know how businesses are run.

Diamond bank was a very big competitor in the financial markets same as AccessBank. Both banks has branches all over Nigeria. Before the merger, the common thing is, where there are bank branches, you see so many other banks there. In a location, you will see, AccessBank, gtbank, fbn, uba, Diamond etc in almost all the competitive environments. Now that there is a merger between AccessBank and diamond bank. Do you expect them to run both branches at the same time? When they are next to each other? That will be insane. The moment they merged, I knew that this was bound to happen. I just do not know when.

Some of the closures are understandable.

For example. There is an AccessBank next to diamond band inside unizik awka.

Also. There is AccessBank next to diamond bank in Regina awka.

There is also an AccessBank next to diamond bank in main market. Same in building materials ogidi.

I do not think that both branches will operating at the same time in the same location when it actually is one entity. That is a pure waste of running cost.

It is very understandable that half of the AccessBank branches be closed after the merger with diamond bank. No need for the waste.

And since those branches are closed, the staff will also be retrenched.

MrMcJay:
Na to close my Access bank account. This is not just Covid-19. There is something fundamentally wrong with that bank. There is fire on the mountain at Access.

Access bank started by delaying transfers to accounts. You send money today, they credit maybe tomorrow or next. Sometimes you may not even get the money. They said it was their network. Then, they moved to making outrageous deductions from customers' accounts. Then to sacking 75% of staff and closing close to 350 branches.

This is another Lehmann brothers in the making. All the signs are there.

Abeg o. Make una easy oo. This one go be the final nail on the coffin. Access is one of the biggest bank today and if they should crash. .. . . Hmmm cry

This suffer is not limited to Nigerian banks. Europe's banks are suffering too and the only thing saving American bank is plastering by the Fed, though that can't last forever.

Undoubtedly, there will be job losses
But the numbers published by Access is a lot.

Why not look into reduced hours or a cut in salaries as Wigwe has done.. Or better still declare no dividend in the forthcoming year.. Everyone can see the current circumstances are unprecedented and unpredictable.

Pushing thousands into the job market at such a time as this, an act that might be followed by other financial institutions is not the right way!!

I won't believe this until the bank officially makes the announcement. If they are shutting down all these branches, how many are still open? That means that the bank is going out of business.

Hmmm just yesterday I was saying to a friend that I suspect they will close a diamond bank in my estate and I was right , looks they are closing diamond bank branches in areas where they already had Access branches , Methinks Herbert Wigwe is just using COVID crunch as an excuse to ditch Diamond bank staff he inherited in the acquisition

So true. The branches close to my house on that list are all former diamond branches

sarrki:
Nigerian financial power house, Access Bank, annunciated the closure of more than 300 of its branches nationwide in a bid cut down running costs as a result of the outbreak of the deadly virus, COVID-19.

This move comes in the wake of a statement made by the group managing director/CEO of Access Bank, Herbert Wigwe who explained the reasons behind a planned mass retrenchment of its workforce, stating that some of its branches will be closed up until December of this year.

Herald NG earlier reported that Wigwe made this disclosure via video conferencing in a town hall meeting with the bank’s staff that later leaked on social media platforms.

Wigwe noted that those to be affected by the mass retrenchment are mostly outsourced staff and workers offering nonessential services. This group makes for about 75% of the Organisation’s staff strength in its branches nationwide.

“We probably don’t need as much security as required; even to the fact that we are not gonna have all our branches open between now and December. We don’t need all the tellers.” Wigwe said in the video.

“The second has to do with our professional cost. Now that is one that is very tricky and it is tricky because I do understand and appreciate that its gonna, you know, bring its own pain to staff.

“We basically have to make the adjustments the same way you sounded when we spoke 10 days ago with respect to basically cutting down cost.

“I will be the first to take the hit and I’m gonna take the largest pay cut, which would be as much as 40 percent. The rest we would have to cascade right through the institution. Everybody may have to make some adjustments of some sort.”

Industry observers have the notion that Wigwe’s retrenchment strategy and closure of its branches affects the most vulnerable of his employees. They also believe the move will be counter-productive for many families; especially the poor if the financial records of the bank truly show it has the capacity to cushion the effect of the pandemic.

lol who told you this had any thing to do with corona virus this move is as a result of the merger as both diamond and access now share the same liabilities to maximise profit from their union and to streamline functions some branches have to go as we should know there are still diamond bank branches operation in the fore mentioned location as such those closures were necessary to stop duplication of services rendered and waste of manpower and resources. to save face access bank is just hiding under the auspices of corona virus. this decision is only to achieve one aim maximise profits and stop wastage's.

seunmsg:
Nigerian banks are too fragile. They can hardly survive any downturn in the economy without massively laying off staff.

Some of these banks also bite more than they can chew. What Access bank is going through now reminds me of my little stint with BankPHB.

BankPHB acquired spring bank late 2008 in a very hostile manner. Billions of depositors funds was committed into the acquition. By March 2009, the bank was already distressed and laying off staff. The hostile nature of the takeover also made it impossible for the quick integration of the operations of the banks. There was also the effect of the global meltdown and crash of the stock exchange market that year.

By the Sanusi came in as CBN Governor around June, the bank was already a mess. He did not bother to romance the problem, he simply killed the bank and other banks that were then struggling to survive the global meltdown and crash of the stock exchange market by late 2009.

Hopefully, Access bank won’t go the way of BankPHB.

Access Bank just used covid19 opportunity to finalize their plan. This has nothing to do with what is happening now. It has everything to do with the merger with diamond bank. They found the golden opportunity to close down most of their branches. It has been in their plan since the day they merge with diamond bank
