Riyadh: Bank AlBilad has appointed ABANA Enterprises Group Co. to replace their existing teller currency counting machines.

ABANA has completed the installation of "Magner75 Plus" across all Bank AlBilad and Enjaz branches.  The project addresses the goal of the Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency (SAMA) to protect the national economy against all sorts of fraud.  The Magner75 Plus offers sophisticated technology that allows accurate and high-speed currency counting and reliable counterfeit detection.

"We believe that with these new machines in place in our branches, we'll be able to improve efficiency, especially in combating counterfeit notes; we will also provide assurance to our customers that they are receiving only genuine notes when withdrawing cash from any of our tellers", said Mr. Khaled Al Othman, Director of Branches, Bank AlBilad.
