May 2023, Dr. Ahmed El-Ansary, Governor of Fayoum, and representatives from the National Bank of Egypt and “eAswaaq misr” a subsidiary of “e-Finance Group”, held a meeting to discuss the financial inclusion initiative.

The meeting was attended by Ahmed Raef, the Vice President of the Projects Development Sector at “e-Finance,” Mr. Khaled Mekki, the Head of the Digital Lending Unit at “eAswaaq misr,” and Dina Wahid, the Financial Account Manager at “eAswaaq misr”.

Governor of Fayoum emphasized the significance of implementing the financial inclusion initiative, which is being carried out by the National Bank of Egypt in collaboration with “e-Finance” company, within the governorate.

The Governor emphasized the need to identify the specific villages targeted by the project across various regions of the governorate. Furthermore, it was stressed to organize seminars and awareness campaigns for citizens, aiming to achieve the desired outcomes by reaching out to determined individuals who are keen on establishing projects and receiving both knowledge and financial support. These efforts aim to enhance the economic situation at the governorate level.

 

Vice President of the Project Development Sector at e-Finance explained the financial inclusion project, highlighting its objective of generating income sources to enhance living standards. This is achieved through financial funding for projects, implementing initiatives, and organizing awareness seminars for villagers. The seminars aim to increase their knowledge and skills, improve efficiency, and provide training on project establishment and management, as well as effective marketing strategies to achieve optimal outcomes.

Additionally, Experts from the National Bank of Egypt and “eAswaaq misr” will conduct introductory seminars on the financial inclusion project, where the initiative will commence with the village of Matwal, throughout 20 villages within Fayoum Governorate, for three days.
