A case for co-operation between banks and BotswanaPost

"Enhancing Access To Banking and Financial Services" is written by Keith Jefferis. In it, the former Deputy Governor of the Bank of Botswana (BoB) says the relationship between the Botswana Savings Bank (BSB) and BotswanaPost offers great potential to spread banking services more widely.

"Whereas bank branches cover only 45 percent of the population, the existing network of post offices covers a significantly higher proportion of the population (65 percent) than the bank branches and therefore potentially provides a way of improving access to the rural and unbanked population," the book says.
