South African Bank Of Athens South Africa
The South African Bank of Athens Limited is focused on delivering world class banking services to the South African market. A truly South African bank, it was established and has been operating in this country since 1947.
The bank’s offerings are focused in two major areas. Firstly, the delivery of a comprehensive business banking offering to its customers. This offering is focused on the cornerstones of business banking – lending, transactional banking, treasury and foreign exchange. These business banking solutions are delivered through a dedicated team of highly experienced relationship managers that support a culture of service excellence and professionalism.
In addition to its business banking focus, the Bank focuses on the development of market leading niche transactional banking offerings in partnership with a select group of businesses. These Alliance Banking offerings, aimed at the personal market, are individually branded to align to the business partner and market niche targeted. The Alliance Banking business currently includes the personal market offerings of Moovamoney (Edcon), Olympus Mobile, Tutuka, WIZZIT Digital and SureCard.
The Bank is a 99.79% subsidiary of National Bank of Greece S.A. (NBG), a major international banking and financial services provider listed on the New York and Athens Stock Exchanges. The parent company’s commitment to and close involvement with the Bank provides a solid foundation and contact with the financial centres of the world.

- To focus the majority of the Bank’s CSI funding on and involvement in those communities within which it operates.
- To manage the impact of the Bank’s relations with the community and environment according to ethical principles.
- To be committed to measure the effectiveness and sustainability of the CSI projects and partnerships against the Bank’s goals and objectives.
- To approach all CSI projects in a consultative manner and where possible to facilitate sustainable wealth creation and self-sufficiency in the communities within which we operate.
- To become involved in CSI in a responsible, principled and innovative way that benefits both beneficiary and donor.
With these principles in mind, the Bank focuses its CSI efforts on two key areas namely education as the primary focus, and community development / support as an additional focus area.
Education and Training includes secondary and tertiary education that will ultimately benefit the financial services sector (e.g. maths, science and commercial studies) as well as school building and equipping, outreach programmes and Adult Basic Education and Training (ABET).
This may include contributions to communities that endeavour to build schools and classrooms in rural areas as well as outreach and special programmes in suburban and township schools. Support may also be provided to Skills development Programmes that are aimed at improving skills levels in communities that will ultimately provide the ability to earn a living and become self-sustainable.
Community Development and Support includes health and social welfare, medical primary healthcare and welfare projects (e.g. food schemes) within the communities in which the Bank operates. These contributions may also be non-monetary, such as organisational, administrative support and time spent by staff to help to organise an event or project for a beneficiary. Contributions can also be made to community Aids awareness programmes aligned to government programmes and support for security and public safety programmes.
