Case Studies

At the height of financial sector collapse, V-Suite was integrated at a national level under the umbrella brand “ZSS”. Focused on concepts promoting inter-operability and universal ecosystems, the V-Suite enabled inter-connectivity at a level never seen before in Africa. With banked individuals dropping form 3 million prior to US dollarization to under 300,000 shortly after, V-Suite has played an integral role in rebuilding confidence in the country’s financial sector and bringing the banked population back up to over 3 million individuals and growing rapidly.
