In the spirit of "Make it Happen" and in line with its new institutional values, Moza Banco has donated over 50 copies of the children's book "A Casa dos Móveis que Falam" (The House of Talking Furniture), written by Mozambican author Ernesto Moamba, thus reaffirming its role in driving social transformation, starting with children.
The donation was recently made at the Guimarães Rosa Institute in Maputo, during the closing ceremony of the Children's Book Production Workshop, organised by Kuvaninga – Cartão d’Arte, a project that promotes the arts and advocates for environmental preservation.
Of the books donated, 30 were given to the students who took part in the workshop, and 20 were delivered to the library of Unidade 30 Primary School, thereby enhancing access to Mozambican literature and encouraging reading habits from an early age.
According to Elcídio Bila, the head of Kuvaninga, reading promotion projects from a young age deserve increasing support from Mozambicans. “Helping to foster a love of reading is like planting seeds for future change,” he said.
The Chairman of Moza Banco’s Executive Committee, Manuel Soares, on his part, noted that this initiative is part of a series of actions being carried out in different parts of the country, through which the bank provides various educational materials to promote learning in Mozambique.
“Just last year, through our social responsibility project Saber Sonhar o Amanhã (Learning to Dream of Tomorrow), we delivered around 1,500 school kits to vulnerable children in the central and northern regions, as we believe in the transformative power of education. We hope these books will spark an interest in literature among the children receiving them – a field we proudly and enthusiastically support,” Soares explained.
Through this book donation, Moza Banco puts into practice one of its core values: Winning Together, by contributing towards the development of a better society

Moza Banco’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Devan Manmoandas, has advocated for the integration of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) metrics into financial analysis and decision-making processes across the sector. His position was presented recently in Johannesburg, South Africa, during the 8th edition of the CFO Forum—an international conference that brought together over 300 financial leaders from across Africa and beyond.
Speaking on the real challenges faced by CFOs in the digital age, Manmoandas highlighted the emergence of a “new CFO” role—one capable of interpreting data not merely as reports, but as strategic compasses. “The finance function of the future is proactive, ethical, and impact-driven,” he stated.
He further elaborated on the evolving responsibilities of the CFO, transitioning from a traditional role focused solely on performance management to that of a transformation agent—leveraging data to create value and guide strategic decisions aligned with global best practices and socio-environmental safeguards.
Moreover, the CFO emphasised that people must be placed at the centre of all strategic efforts, as they are the key resource for any meaningful organisational transformation. “Investing in people is more important than investing in any machine or technology,” he affirmed.
According to Manmoandas, it is essential for African financial leaders to recognise that the future of finance will be shaped by those who lead ethically, with a firm understanding of the value of data. “Without data, we are just another opinion. But with well-governed data, interpreted intelligently and used responsibly, we have the foundation for decisions that build a lasting legacy,” he added.
Devan Manmoandas’ participation in this symposium reaffirmed Moza Banco’s commitment to innovation, sustainability, and responsible leadership in the financial sector in Mozambique and Southern Africa. The Bank takes pride in the participation of its professionals in high-level forums, viewing these platforms as opportunities to showcase the quality and excellence orientation of its staff—key drivers of the Bank’s vision both nationally and beyond borders.
By sharing knowledge and strategic insights with other African leaders, Moza’s CFO embodies one of the Bank’s core values: Winning Together, in pursuit of continental development.
