The digital drive towards alleviating poverty, promoting economic growth, and building opportunities through financial inclusion is slowly being won. But, for many Africans, ‘cash is still king,’ and financial institutions have much to do to build on the successes that saw 49% of Africans join the formal banking sector between 2011 and 2022. “For inclusive banking to break across the 50% barrier and soar further, several things must be achieved. Attention will have to be given to infrastructure development in regions where poor internet and mobile phone networks cause connectivity to continue to lag. Building financial literacy and trust in digital systems is still crucial in some regions.” shared Yinka Sanni, CE for Africa Regions at Standard Bank at the inaugural Business and Commercial Banking Conference. #GrowingAfrica Learn more: https://bit.ly/3AeDuOL
