About us

POFIB Development BV has been founded in 2009 by Piet Biemans. He has intensively been involved in the development of the Postcheque and Giro Center of the Dutch PTT and in the privatisation process of Postbank NV in The Netherlands. During the last 15 years, together with Dutch and international colleagues from the Post and Postbank, he was involved in projects in more than 20 countries to develop on strategic and tactical level postal financial services and post banks.

 

POFIB services are mainly composed of technical assistance services (advisory, training) and support services for financial sector institutions and other service providers which deliver mass-retail financial services, in co-operation with postal companies and post offices, in a branchless banking concept.

These mass retail financial services providers are mainly postal banks, (postal) savings banks and other retail banks, micro finance initiatives as well as remittances operators (domestic and international).
