Founded in 2004, Trust Merchant Bank S.A (TMB) has grown to become one of the largest and most reputable banking institutions in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The bank offers a full suite of services, including retail banking, corporate banking, mobile money (Pepele Mobile), and international trade finance. TMB is renowned for its extensive branch network across the DRC, aiming to provide accessible and reliable financial services throughout the country. In December 2022, TMB was acquired by the Kenyan financial services provider KCB Group Plc, a move designed to expand KCB's footprint in Central Africa while further strengthening TMB's position in the market.
