Mobile Money Fintech LTD, UMB train hairdressers and beauticians

Mobile Money Fintech LTD collaborated with UMB Bank to conclude a financial literacy and capacity-building workshop for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) at the University of Ghana in Accra. This marks the third and final session of the training program, following earlier sessions held in Kumasi and Takoradi. The initiative aims to equip small businesses with essential skills to manage and expand their operations, particularly targeting key players in the informal sector who often lack access to structured support.

Charles Osei Owusu, Senior Manager of Business Development at MobileMoney Fintech LTD, emphasized that the workshop series targeted micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) as they drive Ghana's economy but often face limited access to business support. The sessions focused on three critical areas crucial for business growth: customer service, financial literacy, and the utilization of digital tools.

Participants were educated on accessing financial services through mobile money channels to enhance efficiency and financial inclusion.

The program extends beyond a single training session. MobileMoney Fintech LTD has compiled participants' information and intends to maintain engagement, monitoring, and support to ensure the knowledge translates into tangible business growth. Owusu assured participants that they would receive continued assistance after the training to help them apply their newfound skills successfully.

The partnership leveraged the strengths of both MobileMoney Fintech LTD, specializing in customer service training, and UMB Bank, providing financial literacy education. Participants received additional resources and souvenirs to aid their learning journey. Owusu expressed appreciation to the beneficiary associations, staff, MobileMoney Fintech LTD, partners, and media for their support of this initiative.

Osei Owusu highlighted the importance of empowering micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), particularly women-led businesses, stating that such empowerment has a ripple effect throughout the economy. By bolstering the growth of these businesses, the benefits are projected to extend to various sectors within the business ecosystem, including MobileMoney Fintech LTD and its partners.
