RAKBANK Business Account for Kenyans

Why RAKBANK

In short, account opening at RAKBANK is a compliance process, not a sales process: the bank wants to understand who you are, what you sell, who pays you and where the money comes from. From day one, if RAKBANK is not the right fit for your profile, we say so and introduce you to a bank that is, because a well-matched application is approved faster. To be clear, kenyan applicants benefit from the fact that RAKBANK already has many Kenyan shareholders on its register, so its officers recognise Kenya documents and name formats instantly.
