渣打集团推出非洲数字银行计划
渣打银行的研究显示，非洲是全球银行业增长速度和营利性第二大的地区市场。
由于此前银行业服务渗透不足，社会现金依赖性较强，非洲金融市场的创新空间反而更大。
一年前，渣打银行曾在科特迪瓦推出了该集团在非洲的首个数字零售银行。
而就在刚刚过去的1月底，渣打银行宣布继续扩大非洲数字银行计划。据了解，本次渣打银行将先后在乌干达、坦桑尼亚、加纳和肯尼亚开展数字银行业务。用户不仅可以在15分钟内完成注册，同时还会提供二维码和P2P支付功能，贷款和投资功能，以及即时定期存款服务，全面提升当地居民在购物、旅游和餐饮等日常生活的金融服务体验。
Standard Chartered announced Thursday (Jan. 31) that it has kicked off the second phase of its initiative to roll out a digital-only retail bank in Africa.
In a press release, Standard Chartered said that in response to demand from consumers in Africa, it will launch its digital banking business in Uganda, Tanzania, Ghana and Kenya. Uganda will be the first market rollout, with the others following quickly behind. The company said the expanded rollout comes on the heels of the successful launch of its first digital retail bank in C?te d’Ivoire (CDI) last year.[Source]
