“Just like the other banking subsidiaries of the group, in line with a quality approach, BGFI Bank Senegal will put an emphasis on the quality of the services offered to its target clientele, large and medium-sized enterprises, SME-SMIs with high potential and investment clientele”, clarifies the bank in its communiqué.
