Nice.

Where we are today is the result of fifteen years, or maybe even now sixteen years, of a lot of hard work.
26:40
The hard work resulted in a team that is unbeatable, whether it's physically or digital team.
26:48
Digital assets that no one else in the country has, so a core banking software, an app, a card, a wallet, a scoring model, CVM models, uh, risk models.
27:01
So we've got models that have been developed that are unique to the business.
27:05
A client base that is unmatched in Egypt and that is sticky.
27:11
Also, we're very proud to have, uh, brought into the official financial world more than five hundred thousand people who did not previously have financial history, so that gives us a unique advantage because we brought them in, and now we retain them, and we're bringing more in, so we're also tapping into a segment that is unique.
