“We look forward to developing the next phase of the mobile app for CHMF and to continuing our focus in the cooperative sector throughout the Philippines.
“The cooperative sector provides us with access to members right throughout regional and rural areas of the Philippines and is another important building block to help us deliver financial inclusion to the people of the Philippines.”
