More banks in Kenya go paperless to cut costs



NAIROBI, KENYA: The financial services industry has made great progress in recent years toward eliminating paper-driven processes. Going paperless has opened the door to more efficient operations, lower costs, improved compliance and better knowledge management. However, in Kenya many banks still rely heavily on the physical flow of paper for customer-facing activities but continue to seek ways to reduce their reliance on paper-driven processes. One of the firms driving the modernisation of this core platform in Kenya is Sybrin Kenya Ltd, which is helping financial institutions, and clearinghouses successfully transition from paper to electronic payments and image processing.

Humans are wired for connection, and when we cultivate good relationships, the rewards are immense. But we're not necessarily talking about spine-tingling romance. "There's no evidence that the intense, passionate stage of a new romance is beneficial to health," says Harry Reis, PhD, co-editor of the Encyclopedia of Human Relationships. "People who fall in love say it feels wonderful and agonizing at the same time." All those ups and downs can be a source of stress . It takes a calmer, more stable form of love to yield clear health benefits. "There is very nice evidence that people who participate in satisfying, long-term relationships fare better on a whole variety of health measures," Reis tells WebMD. Most of the research in this area centers on marriage, but Reis believes many of the perks extend ...
