According to the Managing Director of the Bank, Mr. Farid Antar, Republic Bank recognizes the economic effect of social distancing which has become necessary to stem the spread of the virus.
“As a Bank with a heart, we recognize that these are critical times for everyone, with an expected high pressure on cash flows for both individuals and businesses. We have therefore taken a bold decision to offer a loan payment deferment option to our Customers and Staff. This we believe will cushion their cash flows in order to support them to take all precautionary measures needed to protect their families and themselves from the spread of the virus,” the Managing Director added.
Mr. Antar has also recommended that Customers of the Bank limit the use of the Banking Halls and instead, utilize the digital channels (internet banking, mobile money push and pull, *414#) or conveniently located Blue Machines (ATMs) for their banking transactions as part of the social distancing measures. He also took the opportunity to urge Staff, Customers and the General Public to take all precautionary measures to protect themselves and families against the coronavirus (Covid-19).
