BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 23. The Post Bank
of Iran must take bold steps in the field of new technologies and
reformulate its mission, Iran’s Minister of Communications and
Information Technology Seyed Sattar Hashemi said, Trend reports.
Speaking at an event marking the 30th anniversary of Post Bank’s
operations on December 22, Hashemi noted that the bank’s formation
within the structure of the Ministry of Communications and
Information Technology reflects a well-grounded strategy focused on
rural areas and small businesses.
He stressed that the development of communications
infrastructure in villages under the universal communications
social services plan has created new expectations, while the
provision of modern banking services is well aligned with the
digital environment.
The Iranian minister also pointed out that Post Bank has gained
a new competitive advantage within the country’s banking system by
offering a unique service experience even in the most remote
villages.
According to him, if users and small entrepreneurs in rural
areas are able to access the full range of the bank’s services in a
proper manner, Post Bank can secure a distinct position within
Iran’s banking system.
The Post Bank of Iran is a state-owned bank operating in the
fields of financial and banking services as well as the digital
economy across cities and rural areas of the country. The bank
currently operates thousands of branches and banking kiosks
nationwide.
