MOSSEL BAY NEWS - "We form an integral part of the community and we want to be your business partner and not just your bank."
This is according to Fuad Choonara, Standard Bank manager: small enterprises Southern Cape, who spoke at the Mossel Bay Business Chamber meeting held at the Standard Bank Langeberg Mall branch.
The banking world is changing at an alarming rate and Standard Bank wants everyone to know they are moving with the change and doing business the new way. Although they have a head office, the local branch takes all decisions here, says Choonara.
He adds that Standard Bank forms an integral part of the community with just under R100 billion invested in the Mossel Bay area.
Chamber members and visitors tucked into the delicious bread and soups provided at the meeting and much networking was done.
