Tunisia: AMEN BANK named “Most active issuing Bank in 2019″

Within the framework of the Trade Facilitation Program (TFP) or Trade Assistance Program (TAP) established by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), AMEN BANK has been awarded the prize of “The Most Active Issuing Bank in Tunisia in 2019”.

The program currently includes more than 100 issuing banks in 29 countries (including AMEN BANK in Tunisia), with transactions exceeding €1.5 billion since 1999, and more than 800 confirming banks worldwide.
