NDB Expects To Cut Loses By 50%

After experiencing a serious set back in the 2013/14 financial year, the National Development Bank (NDB) vows to cut its losses by 50 percent in the current on-going audit of 2014/2015 financial year.

The CEO further reflected that despite all these challenges, the Bank intends to break through the ceiling and shrink the Bank’s 2013/14 comprehensive loss by at least 50 percent during the year 2014/15 to ensure that the NDB tracks back to profitability.
