4th Edition Digital Banking Summit Innovation & Excellence Awards 2022 - West Africa | International Center for Strategic Alliances | 14 November 2022 | Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City Accra, Ministries PMB, 66 Gamel Abdul Nasser Ave, Accra, Ghana

Africa is home to the second-largest banking market in the world in terms of growth and profitability. Digital transformation of the BFSI sector is no longer an attractive option, it is imperative for banks to survive.
Digital services are helping to fill the huge gaps in financial inclusion by providing access where it is most needed. Most banks will benefit from higher customer numbers in the longer term as they are actively investing in the architecture for the digital transformation now.

We aim to outline the challenges and opportunities within the industry. Where, the content has been curated to educate, inspire and empower leaders to advance their pioneering strategies and integration - to effectively cultivate their operations to increase profitability in the post pandemic era.
