bmobile relaunches as TSTT and RBL conclude major financing agreement

Dr Walcott was speaking at a special media conference along with TSTT Chairman Emile Elias and Minister of Public Utilities Fitzgerald Hinds, to announce the conclusion of a major financing agreement with Republic Bank Limited. Republic Bank Managing Director Nigel Baptiste was on hand for the signing and presented Elias with a commemorative plaque.

Dr Walcott told guests of how the company’s major projects were already transforming customers’ quality of service and the new brand embodied TSTT’s promise to customers and country. “Today, as we celebrate our significant achievements over the past year, the company continues to establish itself in our new strategic plan to transform TSTT from a traditional telecommunications company into a 21st century agile broadband communications company that is responsive to its customers’ needs. We have a brand that is an expression of what is meaningful to the public and represents what we stand for and where we are headed. One that is vibrant, energetic and reflects who we are as a nation. One that is very aligned to our new aspiration and vision of how we intend to treat with customers.” Dr Walcott credited Chairman Emile Elias and TSTT’s Board of Directors for enabling the company to make major strides noting that this year alone approximately $900M will be invested in capital programs.
