digital banking solutions introduced by the firm, which were aimed at promoting financial inclusion and bring banking services to the customer’s doorstep. “Ecobank continues to provide convenient digital banking solutions to the market. We do this in the hope that every individual can easily open and operate a bank account, make payments and send remittances to other people, on the back of the numerous self-service solutions deployed by the bank. Everyone can do this without visiting any of the bank’s branches,” he added.
Accordingly, Ecobank’s senior executive urged customers to increase the use of these features to access banking services from the comfort of their homes. “I encourage every individual to access these services simply by downloading the Ecobank mobile application or dialing *770# on any registered SIM and following the ensuing prompts to transact,” he said.
During his address, Sackey also discussed the Light Up the City 2021 initiative, which he said was running for a third consecutive year since Ecobank started sponsoring the programme. Adding that the event was being held simultaneously in the cities of Accra and Kumasi, he noted that “It is our hope, going forward, to add back Takoradi and explore the possibility of adding other major cities in the years ahead.”
