In banking, are we looking at a branchless, paperless, contactless banking? How distant is the prospect of a cashless society? Such questions, I am sure, must be exercising the minds of many bankers, their technology providers, and their potential competitors. What we are witnessing today is the strategic orientation of one bank which is already projecting itself in the future.
I congratulate the management and board of AfrAsia for undertaking this first minitransformation which will take it nearer to a more digitalised bank. I wish you all the best as you branch out in this new direction. Thank you for your attention. 4  BIS central bankers’ speeches
