Conclusion:
In November, 2010 NSB’s Reforms Pilot Project has been completed successfully, and began
Phase-1 of its Reforms Project.
It focuses on preparing, publishing, and implementing NSB strategies for the next 3 years
including: full automation of services, executing an aggressive human capital development plan,
and revamping all of NSB 90 branches.
The Reforms Pilot Project included: revamping the current data center at NSB Head Office to
enable the operation of a newly developed state-of-the-art digital network, established an NSB
Human Capital Development Center (HCDC), developed new/revised bank regulations,
developed a model for the look-and-feel of rebranded bank branches, hired well over 400 new
employees based on predefined set of selection criteria, and opened 3 new branches
conforming to the new rebranded branch model.
NSB automation project will fully automate all NSB services and connect all of its 90 branches
through a sophisticated/secured network. It will also ensure that the bank uses state-of-the-art
technologies and information systems. The project will incorporate an efficient business
continuity solution to ensure data integrity and around the clock availability of services. In
addition, the project will enable the bank to provide a set of services that it is not currently
possible due to the nature of its legacy/outdated information systems and technologies.
The bank is undertaking an aggressive Human Capital Development Center initiative and
succession plan. The initiative will begin with a massive human capital assessment and gap
analysis phase followed by a customized human capital development program that targets
employees across the organization to change/improve its culture while drastically improving on
its human capital assets.
Through the project, NSB was able to upgrade and refurbish the branches of 6th of October,
Zagazig, Mohandiseen, Qous, New Valley, Aswan; then developing Madinet Nasr, and four
other branches will be finished at Asyut, Suhaj, Qena and Luxor.
Furthermore, within 2011, NSB has a plan to upgrade and refurbish 19 other branches.
Other branches are in serious need for upgrading, refurbishing and retrofitting. NSB has a plan
to continue upgrading other branches by the year 2014 through consulting engineering firms and
certified contractors.

Annual Review Second Quarter Report for 2012 Deliverable Description Date: 1st July 2012 Conclusion: In November, 2010 NSB’s Reforms Pilot Project has been completed successfully, and began Phase-1 of its Reforms Project. It focuses on preparing, publishing, and implementing NSB strategies for the next 3 years including: full automation of services, executing an aggressive human capital development plan, and revamping all of NSB 90 branches. The Reforms Pilot Project included: revamping the current data center at NSB Head Office to enable the operation of a newly developed state-of-the-art digital network, established an NSB Human Capital Development Center (HCDC), developed new/revised bank regulations, developed a model for the look-and-feel of rebranded bank branches, hired well over 400 new employees based on predefined set of selection criteria, and opened 3 new branches conforming to the new rebranded branch model. NSB automation project will fully automate all NSB services and connect all of its 90 branches through a sophisticated/secured network. It will also ensure that the bank uses state-of-the-art technologies and information systems.
