  • Le projet

A complete digital transformation for one of Africa’s most important financial institutions

The Pan-African Bank is a supranational financial institution serving as the foremost trade finance bank for the African continent, with operations spanning over 50 countries, multiple regional offices, and billions in managed assets. Their existing corporate website no longer reflected the institution’s scale, credibility, or the breadth of its product offerings. STEPS was engaged to perform a full UI/UX audit and redesign of the entire digital presence — over 300 pages covering institutional information

redesign of the entire digital presence — over 300 pages covering institutional information, product catalogs, event management, impact stories, investor relations, news, knowledge resources, and stakeholder communications. The redesign prioritized information architecture clarity, visual hierarchy, accessibility compliance, and a modern design language befitting a world-class financial institution with AAA credit ratings.
