Abstract: Abstract The scale, scope, and effects of the 2008 global financial crisis revealed several lapses in the regulatory, corporate governance, and operational strategies of banks. Understanding the changes and recent trends in global banking is essential for appraising the policy and practical strategies of future banking in Africa and other developing regions. This chapter employs thematic content analysis to examine the changes that have occurred in global banking since the crisis; including power shifts, regulatory changes, corporate governance issues, and operational strategies, among others. In addition, the chapter also discusses the current challenges and opportunities in global banking and the role of information communication technology and financial integration. The implications of these changes for future banking in Africa are also highlighted.
