Collaboration with international partners is an essential part of the MBA’s mission to nurture an innovative banking sector. This month, the CEO of the MBA held meetings with the British High Commissioner to Mauritius, and the Ambassador of the European Union in Mauritius, to discuss issues relating to the fight against Money Laundering, and explore collaboration on capacity building with British and European institutions. Through the support of BCP Bank, the MBA is currently working with the Groupement des Banques Privées du Maroc on a number of opportunities for their respective member banks to share their expertise and explore complementarity; given that Morocco and Mauritius are the two investment-grade jurisdictions on the African continent. Additionally, through the MBA’s participation in the Alliance of African Institute of Bankers (AAIOB), five Mauritian bank employees were selected to participate in a pan-African leadership training session organised by the Egyptian Banking Institute, as part of their first round of the Fully Funded “African Emerging Leaders Program” for African bankers.
