ACCA recognises the banking and finance industries

ISLAMABAD: The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA), the world’s largest body for professional accountants, has named Mobilink Microfinance Bank Ltd (MMBL) a ‘Approved Employer’ for its outstanding employee development and training initiatives.
The result further solidifies MMBL’s position as a top employer in Pakistan’s banking and financial industry.
The ACCA’s Approved Employer Program honours a select group of companies around the world for their commitment to employee training and development.

The ACCA’s recognition reflects the MMBL’s commitment to ensure that current and future ACCA members have the necessary mix of technical, professional, and ethical abilities to contribute value and propel the organisation ahead.
The MMBL will now have exclusive access to the ACCA’s global network of leading employers and professionals, world-class employer resources, and award-winning thought leadership as a result of the recognition.

“We are thrilled to become an approved ACCA employer,” MMBL chief human resources officer (CHRO) Samiha Ali Zahid said, “which will not only help us attract and retain the best talent but will also give us access to ACCA’s professional insights.” MMBL is fully committed to nurturing its workforce through dedicated professional development programmes, with the goal of ensuring a high-performing workforce.
“MMBL takes pride in being an employer of choice in the country,” stated MMBL Chief Finance and Digital Officer Sardar Mohammad Abubakr.

In a congratulatory letter, Sajjeed Aslam, the head of ACCA Pakistan, said, “Mobilink Microfinance Bank is an excellent addition to our global employer network. Working together, we will develop the future-ready talent that our country requires to future-proof enterprises and enhance our economy. It’s also a chance for ACCA and MMBL to collaborate on problems like financial inclusion and SME growth, allowing us to have a greater effect in the pursuit of a better, fairer, and more sustainable future for all.”
