CARD Myanmar Company Limited (CMCL) renews its partnership with the Savings Banks Foundation for International Cooperation (SBFIC) to continue its mission in eradicating poverty in Myanmar.
“With our tireless efforts to achieve our goal, CARD Myanmar continues to expand its outreach in far-flung communities and urban poor areas in the country. With this strong partnership with SBFIC, we are expecting to reach more clients and provide them access to financial products and services,” said Josef Leron, Managing Director of CARD Myanmar.
Leron also stressed that the partnership will be a great help to empower the marginalized sector of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar. This is one of many ways of CMCL to provide financial connection for them to grow their businesses and to improve their quality of life.
“The overall goal of the partnership is to reduce poverty and promote economic development of communities by improving the financial services we provide,” Leron added.
He also emphasized that with the good performance of members, with 99.80% repayment rate, of CARD Myanmar, the goal of this partnership will continue to reach more unserved and underserved Myanmar people.
