Western Union Signs Up Postbank Uganda
Post Bank Uganda has joined the ranks of four other local banks in the country as a fully-fledged Western Union money transfer agent.
The bank that has over the last three years undergone a number of changes and expansion aimed at delivering more value to its customers will add 22 agent locations to Western Union’s existing network of over 160 Agent locations in Uganda.
Diamond Trust, Crane, Barclays and Centenary banks are the other financial institutions providing Western Union service in Uganda.
“The key of Western Union’s business is a comprehensive and extensive network that operates hand-in-hand with reliable partners through localised resources, such as banks, post offices and even some retailers,” a statement quoted Mr. Hikmet Ersek, the executive vice president and managing director Western Union for Europe, Middle East, Africa and South Asia as saying.
