STANCHART'S Chandra is banker of the year


"The BIOB plethora of activities provides a forum for banking members and guests to interact on matters of mutual interest and to come up with harmonized strategies to ease the intricacies and iron out any differences we may have in providing banking services," she said BIOB's mission is to promote and develop professionally qualified and competent bankers in Botswana, primarily through a process of training examinations and continuing professional development programmes.
Since its establishment in 1991, the BIOB has been the educator, enabling citizen employees of financial institutions to gain practical knowledge and professional skills and consequently, be able to play a more dynamic role in the banking industry.This year's ceremony was held under the theme, "Stop Fraud." First National Bank Botswana (FNBB) CEO Lorato Boakgomo-Ntakhwana highlighted that financial institutions should safeguard and build the security and integrity of Botswana's financial system:
"Botswana's financial institutions have fully supported the call to combat fraud by engaging in activities such as creating awareness, training staff to identify suspicious transactions and inter-sharing best practices with local as well as international law Enforcement Agencies," said Boakgomo-Ntakhwana. These combined efforts; she noted are critical to promoting legitimate economic activity and growth.
