Kenyan banks are making more money from their customers compared with their much larger Nigerian counterparts thanks largely to technology, ratings agency Moody’s says in a new report.

Deployment of mobile channels to replace brick and mortar and hiring of third party agents have helped banks cut the number of branches from 1,518 in 2017 to 1,505 in 2018 according to Central Bank of Kenya latest industry data.
