It was the first bank to be established in Nigeria without government or foreign support. Ibadan is the largest indigenous black African city in the world, with a population of more than three million people. The study assessed the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) practices of FCMB in Ibadan metropolis. FCMB has 12 CSR activities in the city. The study employed the survey research design, using both quantitative and qualitative methods for data collection. A purposive sampling technique was adopted to select 180 respondents from FCMB top management staff, customers and members of immediate communities where the bank operates CSR. The study was hinged on the stakeholders’ theory and the two-way symmetric model of communication. Data was analysed using the Statistical Programme for Social Sciences (SPSS). Findings revealed that FCMB Corporate Social Responsibility positively impacts on the immediate communities (80%) with the bank’s CSR activities. Also the bank’s CSR enables customers to have regular feedback with a view to improving the bank’s corporate reputation and services (76%), while it also attracts more customers to the bank (85%) that open accounts and transact business with FCMB. The study therefore concludes that the FCMB economic dimension of CSR programmes and projects have direct impact on the level of patronage of the bank, resulting in major expansion of FCMB in Ibadan city. It increased the business volume of the bank in Ibadan metropolis. Thus, the study recommends that other commercial banks in Ibadan metropolis should emulate the operational strategies of the bank’s CSR to support both customers and other stakeholders for improved services for expansion of their businesses.
