About Us
The People’s Own Savings Bank (POSB) is Zimbabwe’s only 100 percent home grown savings bank that has served the nation by providing quality, affordable and accessible banking services for over 120 years.
Our History
The People’s Own Savings Bank, formerly the Post Office Savings Bank, was established in December 1904 as a statutory fund to mobilise savings for national development. From January 1905 until 1965, the Bank conducted its operations through the Post Office infrastructure network. In 1965, the Post Office Savings Bank Act {Chapter 249} was promulgated thereby providing for the administration of the Savings Bank by the Posts and Telecommunications Corporation (PTC) on an agency basis. Finally, in 2001, the People’s Own Savings Bank of Zimbabwe Act (Chapter 24:22) was promulgated. This Act effectively established POSB as a corporate body, separate from PTC.
