The Cambridge-based firm designs microchips used in most smartphones, including Apple’s and Samsung’s.

ARM, which was founded in 1990, employs more than 3,000 people.

Shares in the UK technology firm surged by 45% at the open of the London Stock Exchange to 1,742.85p per share, adding £7.56bn to ARM’s market value.

Foremost African financial institution; Guaranty Trust Bank plc has once again reaffirmed its position as a leading global brand with its recent recognition as the ‘Best Bank in Nigeria’ at the 25th anniversary of the Euromoney Awards dinner, held earlier this month in London.

The bank was also adjudged the best digital bank in Africa.
GTBank has consistently played a leading role in Africa’s banking industry. It is therefore not surprising that the bank has won the best bank in Nigeria award for 8 consecutive times outside of 2013, when it was recognized as The Best Managed Bank in Nigeria.
The GTBank brand is regarded by industry watchers as one of the best run financial institutions across its subsidiary countries and serves as a role model within the financial service industry due to its bias for world class corporate governance standards, excellent service quality and innovation.
