"For any market in the world, the combination of services we are providing would be exciting, when this is in the African context, the implications are especially profound." "The launch of Flous in Gabon marks the latest milestone in our endeavour to provide market-relevant, transforming mobile financial services across our global markets," he said. "Flous is a solution that enables customers to use their mobile phones as digital wallets.

By redesigning the relationship between financial institutions and customers, we will provide banking services to all communities in the country and raise the levels of financial participation."
