Cognizant of this fact, we have continuously invested in technologies that offer banking solutions to the authorities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTogether with connecting the government\u2019s electronic payment gateway with NMB\u2019s digital channels, we are investing further to ensure that most other transactions are carried out electronically,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Mpango said the digital support the government is getting from the bank in addition to the dividend payouts is a manifestation of NMB\u2019s huge contribution to nation building efforts.<\/p>\n<p>In the last over 10 years of its leadership in profit banking, the dividend payments it made to the government have amounted to some 155.8bn\/-.<\/p>\n<p>The VP also said the government was proud of NMB\u2019s achievements and is a 31.8 per cent shareholder in the business that has accorded it a lot of value.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are gratified with our investment in NMB since it is now paying off handsomely. The government on behalf of Tanzanians commends the bank for the good work it is doing to serve the country,\u201d Dr Mpango said.<\/p>\n<p>NMB\u2019s capital almost doubled in the last five years to 1.1tri\/- last year from 666bn\/- in 2015.<\/p>\n<p>NMB Chairman, Dr Edwin Mhede, said apart from innovation prowess, the bank other success secret was its staff supporting over four million account holders and more than 8,400 agents.<\/p>\n<p>NMB has also been active in driving the national financial inclusion agenda through innovative digital finance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
