  • Report Identifies Five Main Challenges Facing African Banks
    A “Meeting of Minds” report identifies five main challenges facing African banks Port-Louis, 20th December 2019 : In October 2019, during the tenth Africa Forward Together (AFT) forum in Mauritius and spearheaded by Mauritius Commercial Bank (MCB), a special workshop aptly called “Meeting of Minds” session leveraged the insight and brainpower of over 35 C-level and senior banking leaders across the African region and beyond. The aim of this session was to identify and prioritise the main challenges faced by their banks in five distinct but interlinked areas that were purposefully scoped to look beyond numbers: - Expertise - People - Operational Efficiency - Risk - Corporate Sustainability Further to the “Meeting of Minds” workshop, a report probing into discussions has been published this week by MCB. It identifies five main challenges facing African banks and financial institutions, as follows: 1) Lack of technical expertise amidst the increased cybersecurity risk 2) KYC issues hampering financial inclusion 3) Talent Management, retention and development 4) Customers' education and staff skills gap 5) IT & Digitalisation and Transformation Programme – Expertise On a maximum rating of 9 points, the experts assessed the following: Risks: - Cybersecurity and lack of experience: 7.1 Sustainable development: - Inadequate institutional framework is a burden: 7.1 People: - Talent management: 7 In the editorial of the report, MCB Group CEO, Pierre-Guy Noël speaks of an alignment of African banks and institutions on the key issues they have to face. “Considering the relative heterogeneity of African markets in terms of distinct characteristics and level of maturity in consumer behaviour, there was a remarkable alignment on the challenges facing the region’s financial institutions,” he said.
