He said that though the bank’s head office is on the Lagos Island like most of the competition, a decision was taken to build the annex in the mainland area of Lagos to maximise benefits available from business opportunities in the metropolis. •Yemi Adeola, Sterling Bank MD Adeola explained that a new head office had become inevitable because the bank’s operation was expanding and the existing head office was becoming too small for its level of operation while the associated high rent which the bank was paying on rented premises had become untenable. On his part, Chairman of Sterling Bank, Ighodalo, commended the bank’s management for desiring to give its employees one of the best working environments possible. He added that the new workplace will ensure optimal productivity, job satisfaction and talent retention. He noted that although some of the bank’s competitors also have head office annexes.”
