Banks are expected to expand their hiring after successfully negotiating with their union –the Banking Insurance and Finance Union (BIFU)— to lower the entry-level salary in the industry to Sh50,000.

The lower entry-level salary is expected to allow lenders to hire more workers at a lower cost, setting the stage for increased bank jobs.
