BAC Honduras has initiated several programs aimed at supporting various economic sectors through training and financial tools.

In September 2026, the bank formalized a cooperation agreement with the Asociación Gastronómica de Honduras (AGHAS) to strengthen the gastronomy industry. This partnership focuses on business training, education, and financial inclusion to assist entrepreneurs with operational processes and decision-making.

By October 2026, the bank expanded its support through the ‘Conexiones Empresariales’ program, launched in partnership with Mastercard. This initiative specifically targets small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by providing training in digital transformation to help optimize operations and increase competitiveness across strategic economic hubs such as El Progreso, Santa Rosa de Copán, and Choluteca.
