Africa-Press<\/a> – Zimbabwe<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>By Alois Vinga<\/b> – LISTED microfinance bank, GetBucks has been granted an Authorised Dealership Licence enabling the entity to fully participate in the international banking segment.<\/p>\n

Presenting the financial performance for the full year ended December 31 2021, the group\u2019s chairman, Rungano Mbire described the development as exciting.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Microfinance Bank was granted an Authorised Dealership Licence and can now participate in the international banking segment.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was an exciting development that will enable the Microfinance Bank to offer a broader range of products to its clients whilst increasing foreign currency transactional income,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The Microfinance Bank also received lines of credit which it will deploy into the loan book to increase interest income.<\/p>\n

In addition to this, the provision of financial services using technology continues to be the core focus of the bank.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, during the period under review, borrowings decreased from $210 million to $100 million due to the effects of inflation despite raising additional funding.<\/p>\n

The funds were deployed into the loan book though it also reduced from $173 million to $82 million due to the effects of inflation.<\/p>\n

The remaining funds were part of the cash and cash equivalents that grew by 35% from $111 to $149 million. Customer deposits increased from prior year by 104% from $57.1 million to $116.7 million resulting in an aggressive deposit mobilisation strategy.<\/p>\n

Total assets decreased by 26% from $589.7 million to $438.3 million due to the effects of inflation affecting the monetary assets movement.<\/p>\n

However, the microfinance bank recorded a net loss of $45million representing a 159% decrease from prior year attributed to a net monetary loss of $29 million as the Microfinance Bank\u2019s assets were predominantly monetary assets.<\/p>\n

Operating expenses proportionally increased during the period under review from $115 million to $160 million primarily driven by a general increase in the cost of doing business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
