Mybucks supports ICAM with K3 million for lakeshore conference

Malawi: MyBucks Banking Corporation has contributed K3 million to the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Malawi (ICAM) to help it hold its lakeshore conference in Mangochi from September 15th to 17th, 2022.

MyBucks Chief Finance Officer, Chimwemwe Midian, stated that as a bank, they value the role that ICAM plays in the country, thus their support.

He said: “We are excited to partner with ICAM for the prestigious event that will be happening in a few days. We have been partnering with ICAM for the past four years and we are excited to do the same this year.

“ICAM plays a vital role in the economy in as far as regulating the finance profession in the country and also influences policy direction in the country that is why we have always partnered with them, and we wish them the best as they prepare to make the upcoming event a success.”

Charles Chimpeni, ICAM's Director of Technical and Membership Services, praised MyBucks for their financial assistance in his comment.

“We do not take it for granted that MyBucks has spared its money knowing the economic shocks that we are in and we are very grateful for the sponsorship,” he said.

The theme of this year's ICAM lakeshore conference, he says, is "Digitizing the Economy, the New Future for Malawi."

He also praised MyBucks for its embrace of digital banking, stating that MyBucks is one of the financial institutions in the country that has embraced technology, making life easier for accountants who bank with the financial institution on an individual or corporate basis as they manage transactions for their employers.

As a result, Chimpeni stated that the financial support they have received is a reward for the accountants who will attend the upcoming lakeshore conference and that the accountants will be pleased to know that MyBucks was a part of making the conference a success.

MyBucks Malawi is a full-service bank with locations in Blantyre, Lilongwe, Mzuzu, Zomba, Mangochi, Dzaleka, Kasungu, and Madisi.
