He added that NIB has chalked significant successes since the outdooring of the three (3) year Strategic Plan (2015\u20132017) which has fast-tracked the growth of the Bank, making it more competitive and meeting customer expectations.<\/u><\/p>\n

He further said that, the recent Supreme Court\u2019s unanimous decision of 7-0 dismissing a review application filed by the Dominion Corporate Trustees Limited against NIB, \u201cbrings finality to an eight-year old case in which Dominion Corporate Trustees Limited was claiming over $120 million in judgement debt from the Bank.<\/p>\n
