Juba, November 18, 2025–The Bank of South Sudan on Tuesday launched the communications strategy for the South Sudan Financial Sector Strengthening (3SF) Project.
The move aims at advancing transparency, public engagement, and effective information flow in the financial sector.
3SF Project Coordinator, Atem Bul, emphasized the role of communication in institutional performance. “Effective communication ensures clarity, coordination, and accountability across all levels. It bridges the Bank, stakeholders, and the public,” he said, highlighting the strategy’s importance in supporting reforms.
Director of Communication and Public Relations, Majok Nikodemo Arou, stressed reaching audiences effectively. “Communication is a natural and universal phenomenon, and it is essential for institutions to engage both internal and external audiences effectively,” he noted.
3SF Communication Consultant, Dr. James Oranga, demonstrated the strategy’s framework, saying,
“This strategy ensures that stakeholders including policymakers, development partners, commercial banks, microfinance institutions, and the public are well informed about project activities, progress, and reforms, with a view to strengthen financial stability and boosting public confidence.”
The 3SF Project, a five-year initiative backed by an $18 million grant from the World Bank, aims to modernize and strengthen the Bank of South Sudan by enhancing its supervisory and regulatory capacity, upgrading its core banking system, and improving the country’s financial infrastructure.
A couple of officials said the project will support reforms, expand financial inclusion, and promote sustainable economic growth.
