AccessBank opens another regional branch

AccessBank has opened a new branch in Salyan.

Baku, April 2, 2009. AccessBank has opened a new branch in the town of Salyan. The opening of this new branch not only increases the number of branches to twenty-two but also extends AccessBank’s regional branch network.

Each year AccessBank’s branch network expands to cover more regions of Azerbaijan. With this continual expansion, AccessBank offers people living outside of the capital full access to banking products and, in particular, supports business development in the regions through the disbursement of business loans. Many AccessBank regional branches, especially those in Sheki and Ganja, are leaders in the number of loans disbursed, which demonstrates the demand of local entrepreneurs.

Dr. Andrew Pospielovsky, General Manager of AccessBank, greeting the opening of the new branch said: “Opening of the new branch in Salyan is an important step in the general strategy of the bank to provide access to financial services to small business and Azerbaijanis throughout the country. Increasing access to financial services and developing the non-oil sector of the economy of Azerbaijan are the main priorities of our bank and its shareholders.”

The Salyan branch, like all other branches, provides a full range of services for legal entities and individuals, including international money transferring systems, current and deposit accounts, VISA plastic cards as well as disbursement of small business and retail loans.
