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
