Why YWBN Own The Bank Exists?
South Africa has one of the highest unemployment rates in the world. While studies show that the future of employment and economic growth is dependent on SMMEs, particularly those based in the township and rural dwelling where 90% of new jobs can be created, thousand of innovative business fail to emerge with many forced to close shop due largely to lack of access to financing to keep businesses afloat.
“Meanwhile, financing of SMMEs has been an issue for many years and has held back the ambitions of entrepreneurs, particularly black entrepreneurs in townships and rural areas, resulting in job losses, trapping millions in poverty and contributing to stark inequalities that persist more than two decades after the end of apartheid in 1994,” says YWBN Own The Bank.

In terms of filling the gap in the financial sector, YWBN Own The Bank says: “In order for the country to progress towards sustainable and inclusive economic growth; it needs a strong financial institution dedicated towards implementation of reforms in economic sectors that have the greatest potential to grow and create much-needed jobs; build an economy in which the majority of South Africans could have a meaningful stake and benefit from; open up markets for new emerging enterprises and thus reverse economic inequalities.”
