Our History

The Botswana Savings Bank (BSB) was established in 1963. It was originally called the Post Office Savings Bank and was administered within the Department of Posts and Telecommunications Services of South Africa and Bechuanaland. Later in the same year, South Africa handed the Post Office Savings Bank to the Bechuanaland Postal Services Department under the Ministry of Works and Communications. In 1982, the Post Office Savings Bank was transferred to the Ministry of Finance and Development Planning and was upgraded to a full specialised Government Department with the title – the Botswana Savings Bank. In 1992, Parliament passed the Botswana Savings Bank Act, which established the BSB as an independent, national financial institution, wholly owned by Government. The purpose of BSB is to provide avenues for saving by the small saver and to provide financial services for all the people of Botswana under the supervision of the Bank of Botswana. The services of BSB are provided countrywide through special Savings Bank counters at the Postal Services network. Services provided by the Botswana Savings Bank are savings and loans.
