NCSL Savings & Loan formalised a partnership with Milne Bay Estates (MBE) recently through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), aimed at bringing financial services closer to employees and smallholder growers.

For smallholder growers, the initiative presents an opportunity to develop better savings habits, manage their earnings more effectively and build financial security for themselves and their families.

The partnership was made possible through the support of MBE General Manager, Mr Mohamed Azhaza Abdul Aziz, Mr Paraka, Mr Mesak and the wider MBE Management Team, alongside NCSL.

NCSL is humbled and proud to be part of this partnership, with the main objective to bring financial services closer to the employees and the smallholder growers while encouraging a stronger savings culture and supporting better financial opportunities to improve the well being of their families and communities.

The signing ceremony of the MOU was also attended by Milne Bay Farmers Association’s Chairman, Mr Tautaro and his team, who welcomed the initiative and acknowledged MBE’s efforts in bringing financial services closer to the farming community and other workers living around Gurney.
