BRAC Bank has been recognised as the 'Best Bank in the Private Sector' of Bangladesh at the prestigious Commonwealth Business Excellence Awards 2025, held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The accolade acknowledges BRAC Bank's excellence in business performance, innovation, customer-centric governance, and its contributions to the community and the nation at large.
Corporate leaders and dignitaries from across the Commonwealth gathered at the Concorde Hotel in Kuala Lumpur to honour the award-winning institutions. Md Mahiul Islam, Deputy Managing Director and Head of Retail Banking at BRAC Bank, formally received the award on behalf of the bank.
The Commonwealth Business Excellence Awards is an annual programme that celebrates organisations across Commonwealth nations for their commitment to global best practices, operational excellence, and sustainable impact. It also highlights institutions that champion social responsibility, ethical conduct, and environmental stewardship.
BRAC Bank's consistent financial performance, strong growth momentum, robust governance standards, highest market capitalisation, leading international investor shareholding, and top-tier credit ratings from global agencies S&P and Moody's have reinforced its leadership position in Bangladesh's banking sector.
Commenting on the achievement, Tareq Refat Ullah Khan, Managing Director and CEO (Current Charge) of BRAC Bank said, "We are honoured to receive this international recognition. As a torchbearer of governance, values, ethics, and sustainability, this award reflects the stature of BRAC Bank.
