In a historic moment for Indian banking, the State Bank of India (SBI) has been named the World’s Best Consumer Bank for 2025 by the prestigious Global Finance magazine. The recognition marks a significant global milestone for the nation’s largest lender, celebrated for its inclusive digital strategy and customer-centric innovation.

The award will be formally presented to SBI Chairman C.S. Setty at the World’s Best Bank awards ceremony in Washington, D.C. on October 18, 2025, during the IMF/World Bank Annual Meetings.

Banking for a Billion — Built on Trust and Inclusion

Expressing gratitude on this achievement, C.S. Setty stated, “A heartfelt thanks to our esteemed customers, dedicated employees, and all stakeholders for their unwavering trust.” He reaffirmed the bank’s commitment to customer experience as the core of its growth journey.

Highlighting SBI’s evolving service architecture, Shri Setty emphasized the rollout of vernacular voice banking, simplified onboarding processes, and 24/7 digital support—particularly in rural and semi-urban India. “We are also building omni-channel models backed by AI-powered hyper-personalised offerings,” he said.

This global distinction not only underscores SBI’s scale—serving over 52 crore customers—but also its leadership in blending technology with human touch to redefine modern banking.
