9 Payment Service Bank (9PSB), Nigeria’s leading digital payment service bank with a strong focus on financial inclusion, has reiterated its dedication to providing comprehensive financial services for all. As part of its efforts, it has expanded its financial literacy and mentorship initiatives to Rosebay Schools in Lekki Phase 1, Lagos State, aligning with the theme of this year’s Global Money Week: “Protect Your Money, Secure Your Future.”
During the mentorship session, Akeem Salam, the Group Head of Business Development and Strategy at 9PSB, emphasized the importance of engaging in productive activities to earn money. This includes working for an organization, providing services, running a self-employed business, or investing in ventures that yield returns over time. Salam stressed that once money is earned, it should be secured by depositing it into a savings account at the bank to accrue interest for future use.
