Opening of a bank account to receive home remittances from our dear ones is not easy nowadays and involves a long list of formalities. The Bank of Punjab has introduced "BOP Asaan Remittance Current Account" to facilitate opening of bank accounts by low risk/ low income unbanked/underbanked customers for receipt of home remittances directly into bank account instead of resorting to traditional over the counter cash transactions. These segments of society may include but are not limited to skilled/unskilled work force, farmers, less educated/uneducated people, laborers/daily wagers, women/housewives, self-employed individuals, pensioners, young adult population etc.
