NIGERIA’S INTERSWITCH IN TALKS WITH EQUITY BANK OVER DRC ENTRY


THE BANK AND INTERSWITCH IN JUNE ANNOUNCED A PARTNERSHIP THAT WILL GIVE EQUITY
ACCESS TO BANKING SERVICES AT SOME 650 INTERSWITCH-ENABLED ATMS IN UGANDA.

Nigerian fintech Interswitch is in discussions with Kenya’s Equity Bank about
following the lender into the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), managing
director Mitchell Elegbe tells The Africa Report.

Discussions about following the bank into the DRC are at an “early stage”,
Elegbe says.

Equity Bank operates in the DRC as Equity BCDC, the country’s second-largest
bank by assets. The bank and Interswitch in June announced a partnership that
will give Equity access to banking services at some 650 Interswitch-enabled ATMs
in Uganda.

Equity Group Holdings CEO James Mwangi has made expansion into DRC a central
part of his growth strategy. Economic growth in the DRC is forecast to remain
above the sub-Saharan Africa average, driven by the extractives sector and
improved utilisation of other natural resources.

The African Development Bank says that real GDP is set to grow 8% in 2023 and
7.2% in 2024, driven by extractives, expected to post growth of at least 12%
between 2023 and 2024.
