Painting the path to financial freedom

MANDEVILLE, Manchester — The team from Jamaica Money Market Brokers (JMMB) Bank, Mandeville, on Wednesday, April 17, hosted an invitation-only “laint & sip” event for current and prospective clients, at its branch location.

The occasion was designed to create a relaxed atmosphere in which the attendees explored their artistic prowess, under the tutelage of lead artist, Nelton Johnson, chief executive officer of Blue Ember Concepts.

It was also an opportunity for the institution to provide insight on how to achieve financial freedom.
