Symbolic Meaning of the Logo
The fish eagle not only represents Namibia’s national bird and indigenous bird species, but all natural resources, including agriculture. It symbolizes the autonomous status of the Bank, which determines its own destiny as well as the entrepreneurial spirit of the Bank’s clients. The eagle also symbolizes a guardian looking after the Bank’s interest of agriculture and its clients. The three dimensional circles below the fish eagle represents a coin, symbolizing capital and a successful harvest. It also depicts Namibia’s sun as a source of energy and warmth.
