EABC to support financial Conference

The East African Business Council (EABC), the region’s umbrella organization for the private sector has announced that it will be actively supporting the fifth annual AITEC Banking and Mobile Money Conference, to be held in Nairobi over 2-3 March, 2011. Announcing the Council’s participation in the event, Agatha Nderitu, Executive Director of the Council, said the conference is an ideal opportunity to promote dialogue between the region’s banks and their business customers regarding the best practices needed in the region for quick and efficient financial transactions to promote cross-border trade and investment across the region. “We have watched this conference grow in stature and impact over the years and feel it is an ideal platform to present the Council’s vision for economic integration, promote dialogue among the participants on these issues, and create a positive impact in terms of the new ideas and broader vision that the delegates will take away with them to implement in their organisations.” As part of its input, the Council will prepare a position paper for the conference, setting out the priorities it proposes for the financial services sector to serve the region’s business needs effectively.
