2015

JNBS application for commercial banking license approved 

Following the re-submission of the Jamaica National Building Society (JNBS) application for a commercial banking license in November 2013 to the Bank of Jamaica (BOJ), the application was approved by the BOJ in February 2015.

The country’s third largest financial institution at the time, the Society commenced the process to convert the building society into a commercial bank and to restructure the JN Group.

The National Building Society of Cayman was rebranded as JN Cayman in 2015.

Parish Histories of Jamaica

In 2015, the JN Foundation embarked on a mission to empower Jamaicans by creating and implementing the Parish Histories of Jamaica project. The ultimate goal of this project is to strengthen the social connectedness, improve cultural awareness and increase the community involvement of the Jamaican people.
