New finance centre opens

THE Centre for Excellence in Financial Inclusion (Cefi) opened a new office in Port Moresby last Wednesday with the aim of promoting excellence and a higher quality of life.
Bank of Papua New Guinea assistant governor Ellison Pidik and Cefi executive director Saliya Ranasinghe officially opened the new office.
“The key focus of the new office will be to promote excellence and promote a higher quality of life as stated in the National Financial Inclusion Strategy and Policy to support the people manage their money well, save in formal financial services and deliver activities that will help citizens live an abundant life,” Pidik said.
Formerly, Cefi staff and management operated from the first floor of the Post Office building in downtown Port Moresby.
“With operations commencing at the new office, Papua New Guineans can access financial inclusion services, advice, and training through the centre.”
