Suez Canal Bank Participated in Arab Financial Inclusion Day Activities at October 6 University to Promote Financial Literacy and Encourage students to open “Bedaya” Accounts

Suez Canal Bank participated in the activities of the Arab Financial Inclusion Day during the period from April 1 to 30, within the campus of October 6 University, with the aim of promoting financial literacy and enhancing banking awareness among youth, in line with the directions of the Central Bank of Egypt and Egypt Vision 2030.

In this context, the Bank was keen to engage with university students through a dedicated booth, as well as introduce them to the benefits of the “Bedaya” financial inclusion account, encourage them to open accounts and benefit from its free features, in addition to providing simplified awareness sessions on the basic concepts of financial inclusion and the importance of saving and financial planning.

The participation also included communication between the Bank’s Financial Inclusion representatives and micro-enterprise owners participating in the “Ayady Misr” handicrafts exhibition held within October 6 University, introducing them to the banking services and products that suit the nature of their activities, and providing financial awareness, contributing to supporting the growth of their businesses and encouraging them to join the banking system through opening “Bedaya” accounts for companies and micro-enterprises.

This comes as part of Suez Canal Bank’s keenness to expanding the base of beneficiaries from financial services and enhancing financial inclusion for all segments of society, especially youth, as they represent one of the main drivers of economic growth.

Benefits of “Bedaya” Account:

It is worth mentioning that the “Bedaya” account offered by Suez Canal Bank provides many distinguished services, such as exemption from account opening fees and minimum balance commission, obtaining competitive returns on savings accounts, in addition to simplified requirements.

The account can be opened in EGP or foreign currencies using a valid national ID card (starting from the age of 15). The account also allows customers to obtain a free Meeza debit card, activate e-wallet and internet banking services free of charge, as well as enjoy free enrollment in the loyalty points program for purchase transactions through the “Neqaty” application.

Enhancing Financial Inclusion:

The Bank is also keen to implement the national financial inclusion agenda through participating in events and initiatives launched under the sponsorship of the Central Bank of Egypt, which contribute to enriching financial literacy and developing financial products and services that suit the targeted segments, especially youth.
