Equity Group has picked a veteran insider Samuel Kirubi as the Group’s chief operating officer (GCOO) as the lender seeks to scale up its financial services through technology.
“As Equity rolls outs its ambitious Africa Recovery and Resilience Plan with the aim of scaling its customer base to 100 million by 2025, this calls for the scaling up of our operations, footprint and distribution infrastructure driven by technologically driven digitisation and virtualisation of the Bank,” said Group chief executive officer James Mwangi in a statement.
