    Trust is at the heart of everything we do — and now it's backed by two of the world's most recognized standards for security and resilience.

    At Nombank Microfinance Bank, trust is at the heart of everything we do. Every transaction, every customer interaction, and every service we provide is built on our commitment to protecting our customers, safeguarding their information, and ensuring uninterrupted banking services.

    Today, we are proud to announce that Nombank MFB has achieved certification to two internationally recognized standards:ISO/IEC 27001:2022, the global standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS), andISO 22301:2019, the international standard for Business Continuity Management Systems (BCMS).

    This milestone represents far more than a certificate on the wall. It confirms that Nombank has implemented globally recognized frameworks to systematically identify and manage information security risks, protect sensitive customer and business data, strengthen operational resilience, and ensure the continuity of critical banking services, even in the face of unexpected disruptions.

    Achieving these certifications required months of planning, collaboration, and execution across the organization. The project involved developing and implementing robust governance policies and procedures, conducting enterprise-wide risk assessments and Business Impact Analyses (BIA), deploying security controls aligned with international best practices, running business continuity planning and simulation exercises, training employees, and undergoing rigorous internal and independent external audits to validate compliance.

    For our customers, these certifications offer added assurance that Nombank is committed to the highest standards of security, confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information. They also demonstrate that the bank has structured processes in place to respond effectively to incidents, recover quickly from disruptions, and continue delivering reliable financial services without interruption.

    For our partners, regulators, and stakeholders, this achievement reflects Nombank's dedication to strong corporate governance, regulatory compliance, operational excellence, and continuous improvement. By aligning our operations with internationally accepted standards, we continue to strengthen the trust placed in us and reinforce our position as a forward-looking financial institution.

    A Shared Achievement

    This accomplishment would not have been possible without the dedication of our leadership team, employees, and implementation partners, who worked tirelessly throughout the certification journey. Their collective effort has laid a strong foundation that will continue to support the bank's growth and resilience.

    Certification is not the finish line. It is the beginning of an ongoing commitment. Nombank will continue to strengthen its security posture and business continuity capabilities, and to refine its management systems in step with evolving risks, customer expectations, and regulatory requirements.

    As we celebrate this achievement, our focus remains on our mission: delivering secure, reliable, and resilient banking services, while upholding the highest standards of trust and excellence for every customer we serve.
