Since 2009, Orabank has grown to a pan-African dimension of 12 countries of operation. This strong growth was accelerated, in particular, by the acquisition of the network of Banques Régionales de Solidarité (BRS) in 2013 and the consolidation of its location by the creation of banks in West and Central Africa.
