Yangon, 31 July, 2020
BC Finance Limited (BCF), one of Myanmar’s leading microfinance institutions (MFIs), has recently gone live with the Musoni core banking system, giving the Company the platform to further digitalise its operations. The project was managed by ThitsaWorks, the leading financial technology solutions provider in the country, and Musoni’s partner since 2017.
BCF is a local microfinance institution that started operations in 2013. BCF now serves over 25,000 end customers across eight states, offering a variety of savings and loan products.

The system has been translated into Myanmar language and includes all FRD regulatory reports as standard. Training and support are provided in local language by the ThitsaWorks team during Myanmar working hours.
Mr. Gerard Byrne, BCF’s CEO, commented “We are excited to team up with Musoni and ThitsaWorks. We have witnessed their strong contributions to power financial inclusion in Myanmar, and I am confident that this partnership will enable us to better serve our clients all over Myanmar and provide them with easy access to capital, accelerating the economic development of women, who are our major clients, and bringing increased well-being to households.”
