The Bank of Kigali (BK) will next week open up two more branches upcountry in efforts to extend it services to clients.

The bank management says that it is proactively providing banking solutions to our client through extension of branch network all over the country.

On Monday, a branch will be opened in Kabuga and another Kayonza, which will bring the total number to nine branches upcountry. Others include; Musanze, Rubavu, Muhanga, Huye, Rusizi, Rwamagana and Nyagatare.

According to Management, three more branches will soon open up in Byumba, Kimironko and Gatuna. In Kigali, BK has five branches apart from the head office.

Meanhwile, the government owned bank with  99.8 percent shares, was recently put off market despite the growing interest from the London-based Barclays Bank.

This was attributed to the prevailing global financial crisis, which has forced many multinational financial institutions to revise their investment plans.
