To accelerate financial inclusion and branchless banking in Ghana, Oradian will host a dinner event in Accra as part of the Financial Inclusion Summit for West Africa on April 24 2018 in collaboration with The Microfinance Association.
Oradian, a financial inclusion company, is building its community of visionary microfinance institutions, microfinance banks and Cooperative Societies in West Africa. Through Oradian’s toolset, which includes its cloud-based core banking system (CBS) Instafin, financial institutions are enabled to grow and reach more clients with digital financial services.
The company’s mission is to boost financial inclusion by delivering the tools financial institutions need to serve more clients in remote, hard-to-reach communities.
According to Oradian Co-founder and Programme Director for Africa, Onyeka Adibeli, “Oradian’s cloud-based CBS enables financial institutions to go digital – even in rural regions where Internet connectivity can be a challenge. Instafin has offline capabilities that allow field officers to work efficiently in rural areas without disconnecting from the CBS”.
Oradian’s event is designed to bring leaders of financial institutions, regulatory groups, financial inclusion experts, the Central Bank and fintech providers together to build strategic partnerships that will boost financial inclusion in Ghana and West Africa at large. The event will connect the private sector, public sector and financial services regulators.
“Through partnerships and digitisation, we are closing the divide between individuals in rural regions and access to financial services and account ownership ,” says Matija Karaula, Oradian’s Business Development Team Lead.
Oradian’s toolset, including Instafin, delivers three key business benefits to financial institutions: improved efficiency with digital processes and operations, informed decision-making with real-time data and reporting, and growth without incremental cost. Oradian provides access to its toolset using a subscription model, eliminating financial barriers that prevent financial institutions from accessing leading technology.
Matija Karaula and Onyeka Adibeli will lead Oradian’s dinner event in Accra.
Together, Oradian will continue building strategic partnerships with key financial inclusion leaders and visionary financial institutions in West Africa to provide access to financial services to more clients and to fast-track the Bank of Ghana’s goal to ensure financial inclusion in unbanked communities.
