BPR, TIGO partner to boost mobile banking
In a bid to increase mobile banking penetration and tap into Rwanda’s unbanked population, Banque Populaire du Rwanda (BPR) has partnered with TIGO Rwanda to allow the mobile operator’s subscribers have access to the service. The Bank’s Chief Executive Officer, Herman Klaassen, said on Wednesday that with the new partnership, mobile banking transactions are set to rise above the current 150,000 transactions recorded per month.
