It's a lie, it is 10K cash, two references who have cooperate accounts, your utility bill, two passport photos, and your business registration.

At Diamond Bank, open a Diamond Business Xpress Account with a minimum of 10K. There are lots of benefit to opening this account; SME loan, free business seminar, COT free and lots more

Thanks. Is it different from the corporate account?

Re: Which Bank Is The Best And Most Friendly To A Business That's Just Starting by titicamara22: 3:54pm On Dec 23, 2015

It is different. Corporate account is a CO account and you can't access SME loan with that account

Re: Which Bank Is The Best And Most Friendly To A Business That's Just Starting by Nobody: 4:11pm On Dec 23, 2015

GTBank is preferable. Its more sme friendly and very flexible and dynamic.its very simple to transact with.
