At the moment in Mogadishu there is a trending application which I am certain it’s from Premier Bank, What is the secret behind this Premier Wallet that has become visible all over shops in the city?
Premier Wallet is a new mobile money transfer application that is multipurpose, helps in purchase, direct withdraw and deposit of money on the account, and the application can be used by both account holders and non-account holders.
In terms of figures, how many customers have subscribed to the Wallet currently so far?
The wallet has been well received by the community, since its launch a few months ago, more than 100,000 customers have subscribes to the application.
Well, how is it different from other money transfer systems from your bank and perhaps other service providers in the same field?
This has indeed reflected positively on our public relationship, bridging the gap between our customers and the bank. Now customers can carry out any form transaction and access other service at any place and any time. On top of it, you can easily open up your merchant account using your phone from anywhere without visiting the Bank or even having a bank account. On addition there is still some difficult in coordination of service among the banking institutions here especially when it comes to interbank transactions. The charges when making transactions is still high compared to the international charges which is unrealistic.
What are the steps being taken to overcome these standing block and bridge the gaps?.
When it comes to some none antagonistic issues we are in consultation with stakeholders both public, international, and private sectors. We are about to overcome the internal Interbank Transaction issue.
We have also overcome many challenges. It is recognizable that Premier Bank as the Pioneer of ATM use in Somali played a big role to make it possible to operationalize master card use. So a lot is being done and can only see progress. What is your perspective about the Banking sector in Somali currently? There is a great transformation of the banking sector and far Somalia is second to none in all of Africa when it comes to mobile money transfers. We do acknowledge that there are still some existing challenges paramount of all is lack of a national identification documentation to citizens which is vital for anyone to acquire the banking services.
Is there any steps being taken to
