[Skunkworks] Equity Bank and Biometrics

Ladies and gentlemen, It could be that my news sources are archaic, but I didn't catch the article that Equity Bank now requires you to scan your finger when withdrawing over the counter, untill I went to my branch over the weekend. For a bank with such numbers, this is a huge undertaking, no? I would also assume it makes fraud one step harder. Anyone with more interesting details of this?
