FINCA Uganda in partnership with the World Savings and Retail Banking Institute (WSBI)’s “Scale2Save Programme”, is seeking to leverage new technologies to build a new business model geared towards sustainable savings mobilization. Digital innovations such as the development of relevant and responsible mobile-based products delivered via a smartphone, agent or handset, as well as digital field automation and data analytics form the backbone of this model.

  3. To trigger long-lasting change in customer behavior, measured through usage
