Standard Chartered Bank and Robi Axiata Limited have recently launched a co-branded credit card to provide innovative services to enterprise business customers. 

An agreement has already been signed in this regard between the two companies, which also bolsters their ongoing collaboration on smart analytics, data science, and other areas of digital technologies, a press release from Robi reads.

Robi’s Managing Director and CEO Mahtab Uddin Ahmed and Standard Chartered’s Chief Executive Officer Naser Ezaz Bijoy recently signed the agreement on behalf of their respective organisations at the Robi Corporate Head office in Gulshan.

Having Standard Chartered as our partner makes this journey towards digital innovation all the more exciting and rewarding,” he added.
