For example, during a visit to the credit department the guests were told about the kinds of loans, the basic rules of the borrower. A particular attention was given to education loans, upon which every student depending on his/her educational progress can receive certain benefits while obtaining a loan. The school children showed a great interest in the given service and other new products of the bank, the KICB’s specialists answered all the questions of the visitors of the tour. By the end of it, the children shared their impressions. "It was interesting and informative. We managed to see the work of a modern commercial bank with our own eyes, how the Operation Department - its hub operates. For the younger generation it is important and relevant. Indeed, it is very soon when we have to choose our own profession, maybe some of us after the today's event will decide to devote themselves to the banking business" said Ms. Zhasmin Almambetova, a foster child of the Public Union "SOS Children's Villages Kyrgyzstan".
