The bank is a wholly owned subsidiary of ASA International Group plc, one of the world's largest global microfinance institutions providing micro loans to emerging entrepreneurs across Asia and Africa.
Under the partnership, NdcTech, a longstanding premier partner of Temenos and a wholly owned subsidiary of Systems Limited, will deliver end-to-end core banking implementation and support services to ASA MFB.
