Pakistan State Oil (PSO) and Wall Street Exchange Company (WSE) have
entered into an agreement whereby WSE will be establishing payment
services/branches at selected PSO retail outlets located throughout
Pakistan.
Through this venture, both PSO & Wall Street will facilitate
disbursement of Home Remittances to a large population through PSO
retail outlets that shall prove to be a safe, convenient and an easily
accessible option to meet their financial needs. The said agreement was
signed at a ceremony at PSO House on January 20, 2010 by PSO’s
Executive Director - Finance and Information Technology, Mr. Yacoob
Suttar, and Managing Director, Wall Street Exchange, Mr. Abdul Majeed
Siddique.
ED-Finance & IT, Mr. Yacoob Suttar welcomed PSO’s joint venture
with Wall Street and stated it as a great initiative in the direction
of making PSO’s retail outlets one-stop shops for the masses. He
further said that such alliances capitalizing on PSO’s extensive reach
shall facilitate the 3 million customers that visit company’s service
stations every day by providing them with further convenience. Such
joint ventures shall result in enhanced customer satisfaction, he
added. On this occasion, Director Operations, Wall Street, Mr. Ramzan
Ali, said that Wall Street has had the honor of contributing 461
million dollars to Pakistan’s national exchequer in the fiscal year
2009. With the alliance with PSO, the largest oil marketing company
having the greatest reach nationwide, WSE aims to reach a larger
audience and assist them in meeting their financial needs. This joint
venture would also help the company in contributing a lot more to the
national exchequer, he added.
PSO and WSE were optimistic that this Alliance would go a long way in
enhancing the flow of Home remittances into the country through the
mobilization of Fuel Stations that are spread across the length and
breadth of Pakistan.
