Microfinance bank drives financial inclusion with tech

The Managing Director, Moneytronics Microfinance Bank Limited, Mr Ndubuisi Okoli, said the bank has remained committed to supporting government policy on financial inclusion and contributing to the socio economic development of the country.

“The wider spread of clientele and areas of operation has been achieved through the deployment and extensive use of technology,” he said.

Established in 1992 as Ipodo Community Bank Limited, he said, the bank transformed to Ipodo-Ikeja Microfinance Bank Limited in 2007 after meeting the Central Bank of Nigeria’s new capital requirement, and again in 2020 digitalised operations to become Moneytronics Microfinance Bank Limited.
