Rokel Commercial Bank has on Saturday 27th March 2021 commenced Saturday banking operations at its Wellington, Clock Tower, Wilberforce Street and Juba branches. The branches will be open to the public between 9.30 a.m to 2.30 p.m every Saturday.
It is normal for the Corporate world in developing countries like Sierra Leone to go to sleep on weekends.
Apart from automated banking which is a pretty common feature in today’s banking industry, many banks in Sierra Leone would rather go into comatose at the end of every week.
Forgoing two good days at the detriment of the economy and customer’s demand is insensitive, retrogressive and inconsistent with productivity.
