(firmenpresse) - NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 11/11/15 -- Grupo Financiero Ficohsa has been named Bank of the Year and Bank of the Year Honduras in . The winners of this year's awards employed nimble strategies that reflected a keen market understanding, focusing on efficiency and increasing market inclusion. Banco Financiero Ficohsa stood amongst its peers in the region for combining ambitious acquisitions with a bespoke strategy for long-term growth.
