“Delivery of basic financial services through the national postal operator Azerpost was an important reform launched several years ago.”
According to the electronic news service ICTnews, this view is reflected in the World Bank report “Enhancing Financial Capability and Inclusion in Azerbaijan".
It was also noted in the report that “with its network consisting of 1,600 branches around the country and partnership with banks and other financial institutions, Azerpost contributes significantly to raising financial inclusion and access”.
Note that the report was prepared at the request of the Central Bank of Azerbaijan under the Consumer Protection and Financial Literacy technical assistance project funded by Switzerland’s State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO).
