Bank of Africa (BOA) is an international financial services group headquartered in Casablanca, Morocco. It was formed through the 2010 acquisition of Bank of Africa (est. 1982 in Mali) by the Banque Marocaine du Commerce Extérieur (BMCE, Arabic: البنك المغربي للتجارة الخارجية, lit. 'Moroccan Bank of Foreign Trade', est. 1959), following which BMCE rebranded its commercial operations as Bank of Africa in 2020. The BMCE name survives in the byline "BMCE Group" incorporated in the BOA brand identity.
As of 2024, BOA's two main shareholders were Moroccan financier Othman Benjelloun and French bank Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale, with around 27 and 25 percent respectively. BOA is listed on the Casablanca Stock Exchange.
As of 2024, BOA was the third-largest bank in Morocco, behind market leader Attijariwafa Bank and the cooperative BCP Group.[1]
