The story

Bank of India began its international expansion in 1946 by opening its first branch in London and the first Indian Bank to do so. It opened branches in Tokyo (1950), Singapore (1951), Kenya and Uganda (1953), Hong Kong (1960) and so on. Following the expulsion of Asians from the country by Idi Amin in 1972, BOIU sold its assets to Bank of Baroda and exited the country. In 2012, the BOIUL returned as it was issued a commercial banking license by the Bank of Uganda and it started business operations on 18 June 2012. The Bank has been making profits from the first year of its operations and declared the dividends in its fifth year of operations. The bank is one of the better performing bank amongst all the newer banks in the country in terms of business growth, profitability and asset quality with nil NPA.
