EQUITY Bank started its operations in 1984 as Equity Building Society. Its establishment was motivated by the desire to create a financial service provider which would touch base with majority of the Kenyan population. The need to come up with the institution was out of the realisation that most Kenyans lacked access to financial services or simply could not afford them. The initial focus was to offer Mortgage services but in the early 1990’s EBS changed its business focus to micro finance services. EBS grew to become a leading micro finance institution providing a wide range of products and services.
