CDH Investment Bank has assisted Bankers Association of Malawi (BAM) with a donation of K1.5 million towards the hosting of the 2023 Bankers Association of Malawi Lakeshore Conference from 17th to 20th August 2023 at Sunbird Nkopola in Mangochi under the theme “Banks for all, and development for all”.

At the cheque presentation ceremony which took place on Tuesday 8th August 2023 at the bank’s offices in Blantyre, Executive Director – Finance and Operations, Beatrix Mosiwa said they have decided to sponsor the conference as part of appreciating the advocacy role that BAM plays in uniting and guiding commercial banks in the country.

She stated that the conference and its theme are significant as they provides a forum for stakeholders to discuss and brainstorm action plans on how to improve our nation, on top of what is already being done, in terms of the country’s economic revitalization.

“We are confident that the deliberations at the conference will help participants to brainstorm on how banks, individuals, businesses, and communities can prepare for their financial, business, and economic future today using the variety of financial solutions that are available to promote financial inclusion.”

On his part, Chifundo Mmaniwa, Chief Operations Officer for Bankers Association of Malawi, expressed gratitude for the support, which he said was a timely boost ahead of the annual conference. He applauded CDH Investment Bank for the partnership which will help them to host an effective conference.

“The conference brings together delegates from banks and other sectors of the economy, to discuss the theme and other pertinent topics that will propel economic development for all through the financial inclusion agenda. A country without a robust financially inclusive banking sector cannot attain its economic needs” Mmaniwa said.
