KINGSTON, Jamaica—The National Commercial Bank Jamaica Limited (NCB) says it will reopen its Negril and Baywest branches in western Jamaica on Wednesday, November 5.

“Every branch reopening represents hope for the communities we serve,” said Bruce Bowen, CEO of NCB. “We know many Jamaicans are still facing very difficult circumstances, and our teams are doing everything they can to restore access — whether that’s through branches, ABMs, or otherwise. We’re deeply grateful for our customers’ patience and for the commitment of our staff, who continue to show incredible resilience through this recovery.”

A total of 23 NCB branches are now operational islandwide. The full list includes Baywest, Christiana, Constant Spring, Duke Street, Fairview, Half-Way Tree, Junction, Linstead, Mandeville, Matilda’s Corner, May Pen, Morant Bay, Negril, New Kingston, Ocho Rios, Old Harbour, Port Antonio, Portmore, Constant Spring, Santa Cruz, St Ann’s Bay, St Jago Shopping Centre, and University.

Corporate Area and St Catherine branches operate from 8:30 am to 2 pm, while rural branches open from 9 am to 2 pm.

NCB noted that while more than 200 ABMs remain in operation islandwide, some machines have been affected by power outages and limited connectivity in several parishes.

The bank said ABM service has been restored at NCB’s Fairview and Baywest branches in St James, at the Negril branch in Westmoreland, and at the Lucea branch in Hanover.
