We’re democratizing investment opportunities in Pakistan through our digital financial services companies JazzCash and Mobilink Bank, through the introduction of Government Treasury Bills directly through the JazzCash app. Starting from as little as PKR 5,000, (approx. USD 18), the initiative aims to reach one million active investors, working in coordination with the State of Pakistan and the Ministry of Finance, Government of Pakistan. With a simple and secure journey built into the app they already use, eligible JazzCash customers can invest in 3-month Treasury Bills, which were traditionally only accessible through banks and brokerages. The launch, which took place at JazzCash headquarters today, builds upon Pakistan’s growing appetite for investment - helping Pakistan’s economy to expand and diversify by bringing more people into the formal financial system and unlocking opportunities for people across Pakistan create, build and protect wealth. Our CEO Kaan Terzioglu joined virtually, alongside Senator Muhammad Aurangzeb, Federal Minister for Finance and Revenue; Khurram Schehzad, Adviser to the Finance Minister; Omer Khan, Adviser on Debt Management, Finance Division; Muhammad Khaliq Zaman, Director Domestic Debt Management, Finance Division; Aamir Ibrahim, Chairman of JazzCash and Mobilink Bank; Murtaza Ali, CEO of JazzCash; and Haaris Mahmood Chaudhary, CEO of Mobilink Bank. https://lnkd.in/ehRxFVNX
