Standard Bank (Gambia) Limited (SCBL) started its
banking operations in Gambia back in 1894 when it appointed Elder
Dempster Company shipping line to be its agent in Gambia. It used
to carry many of the functions of the Central Bank and until 2002
it was the only international bank in The Gambia.
The financial institution has their headquarters based in the
capital at Banjul, with three branches and two agencies. Their
corporate base is in Central East London.
Standard Chartered enjoys a 55% market share, of which more than
80% is made up of the middle and upper market segments.
In December 1998, the company launched the country's first
24-hour Automated Teller Machines with VISA card acceptance
for cash machine withdrawals. This introduced for the first
time in Gambia the concept of 24-hour banking.
