I reiterate my appreciation to the Board, Management and Staff of BRED Bank for their support and cooperation. Both prior to and since the date of the issuance of the licence, the institution has made tireless efforts in trying to meet all the conditions and here it is today, opening its doors to serve the people of Fiji.
The Board, Management and Staff are commended for the work done in setting up a fully fledged commercial bank. A bank that will literally start from scratch. Official opening Ladies and Gentlemen, the opening of a new commercial bank in Fiji continues the new era in financial sector development in Fiji.
