What is the Bank’s involvement in women’s entrepreneurship? Why women?
Women are just a starting point. We will also go for youth at a later stage but we started with women because we think that it is an area that has not been given sufficient attention in this market. There is big opportunity to grow this segment. It is also a way of giving back to the community and empowering people who we believe can do better. We emphasize on women’s programmes and we will soon hold a forum in Mombasa that will bring together over 300 women in business. We intend to build capacity among our own people to see how they can start their own businesses. This is the only way to empower the community.
