BCI Guinea - About us

History

The creation of BCI in Guinea in July 2012 marks the start of its activities, demonstrating the BCI Group's commitment to regional expansion.

Despite an unfavorable socio-economic and political environment, BCI Guinée has been able to meet the demands of a difficult market and growing competition thanks to a dynamic commercial policy and offers tailored to the needs of its customers. The banking sector currently comprises some twenty operational banks.

BCI Guinée SA has (07) bank branches in Guinea, enabling it to get closer to its customers. It intends to continue consolidating its policy of customer proximity by setting up in certain strategic locations in Guinea.

The BCI Guinée SA branch network is as follows:

  • Main branch located at the BCI Guinée head office at 6ème Avenue de la République - Quartier Sandervalia - Commune de Kaloum.
  • BCI Madina branch located in the largest business center in Guinea, in the Commune of Matam.
  • BCI's Kagbelen branch is located in a large industrial zone on the outskirts of Conakry.
  • BCI Labé branch in the capital of Middle Guinea
  • BCI Matoto branch located in the large Matoto market
  • BCI Siguiri branch located in the Kouroudakoro district, opposite the Siguiri prefectural hospital.
  • Kamsar BCI branch located in the Kamsar Centre district near the Sahara market
  • These branches have enabled the Bank to get closer to its target customers and increase the level of deposits collected.

The BCI Group has also developed partnerships with the European Investment Bank (EIB), the Société Islamique de Développement (SID), the African Development Bank (ADB) and AFREXIMBANK, which have opened lines of credit to offset the lack of long-term resources in our countries.

Mission

BCI's aim is to provide SME/SMIs with financing facilities. Our development strategy is based on supporting our customers by backing their financing needs.

We are committed to offering our customers innovative banking products and solutions based on reliable services and partnerships, as well as competitive savings solutions. We also provide our employees with the best possible working conditions, encouraging them to commit themselves responsibly and with an entrepreneurial spirit.

BCI has played an essential role in financial inclusion in Guinea and the widespread use of electronic means of payment. In order to meet the growing demand due to the decreasing use of cash in transactions, we plan to provide our customers with a mobile payment solution. This solution will include a legal electronic currency to facilitate payment transactions.

Vision

BCI is stepping up the expansion of its intermediation activities for SMEs and SMIs, as well as in the retail banking sector. This strategy has considerably improved the collection of resources and the granting of loans to businesses.

The Bank focuses on winning new markets and external growth, developing micro-credit and supporting SMEs and SMIs in their upgrading process.

A reliable network

The bank has developed a network of dozens of financial and banking partners in most countries where its clients do business, led by Natixis-Banques Populaires, a long-standing partner and advisor.

A network of strategic partners

Among them, the European Investment Bank (EIB), the African Development Bank, Proparco, the African Garantee Fund and the Société Islamique de Développement (SID), all of which have provided credit lines and guarantees to offset the country's lack of long-term resources.
