Bank Asia PLC recently launched a digital financial literacy app, styled "Amar Hisab-Kitab", to accelerate financial inclusion activities.

The app was developed by Bank Asia, in collaboration with the United Nations Capital Development Fund (UNCDF), under the Aparajita Project of H&M Foundation to strengthen financial inclusion programmes for readymade garment workers.

Mohammad Ziaul Hasan Molla, deputy managing director, chief anti-money laundering compliance officer and head of channel banking of the bank, unveiled the app while inaugurating a training programme on it at the office of Gonoshasthaya PHA in Savar, said a press release.

Participants of the event received hands-on experience with the app usage so that they can transfer the knowledge to RMG workers and their communities

Senior officials of the bank, head of branches, agents, micro-merchants, field officers and readymade garment (RMG) factory officials attended the programme.
