Bank Mayora has been rebranded into Hibank, as parent company BNI wants the lender to focus on digital banking services for small businesses.
tate-owned lender BNI has turned its subsidiary Bank Mayora into Hibank and commissioned it to provide digital banking services for small businesses.
The move comes after BNI acquired a controlling stake in the small lender in May 2021 with a plan to turn it into a digital bank.
The corporate action included shares previously owned by the International Finance Corporation, a member of the World Bank Group.
“The change in name and logo of the company already took effect on May 17,” Hibank wrote in a statement on Wednesday.
