The statement on the bank’s website says that Parallex Bank Limited was incorporated as a limited liability company on the 22nd day of May 2020, having successfully converted from Parallex Microfinance Bank (a National Microfinance Bank incorporated in 2008 as a Unit MFB) to a commercial bank duly licenced of by the Central Bank of Nigeria to carry out commercial banking services.

Part of the special features of the bank includes “5 Free Interbank Transfer Daily” and “No Maintenance Fees on all accounts.”

According to the bank, “it will be leveraging the best talents and technology to deliver unparalleled value to our stakeholders.”
