Vehicle and asset financing for the institutions’ asset acquisition needs with an offering of up to 90% financing for brand-new assets,” Nyiramugisha says.
She adds: “Housing Finance Bank is also offering salary loans and incremental housing solutions to teachers to enable them to meet their personal obligations and build their own houses. To parents, the bank is offering convenient school fees payment options through the SchoolPay platform that enables school fees payment through multiple channels including Housing Finance Bank (HFB) branches, HFB Mobile Banking App and through authorized bank agents.”
