Modernizing lending in Zimbabwe

Adedeji Olowe, CEO of Lendsqr, emphasized the company’s commitment to supporting lenders:

“Lending should be straightforward, not burdened by manual processes that slow down financial access. With Lendsqr, we are giving lenders in Zimbabwe the tools to process loans faster, manage risk better, and reach more borrowers. Our focus is on making lending work for both lenders and the people they serve.”
