2. Commercial bank C.E.Os and Top managers 

The banking and financial sector in Tanzania is also home to some of the top highest paying jobs in Tanzania. Banks in Tanzania pay competitive salaries and bonuses to their employees. Economists and financial analysts are of the opinion that banks in Tanzania pay competitive salaries to employees due to the fact that they make billions of shillings in profits every financial year and hence no room for losses which may have reduced salary and remuneration budgets. It’s often very rare to see a bank in Tanzania making losses whatever the prevailing economic condition is. Currently loan customers are charged 19% interest rate on the money they borrow for whatever reasons. Tanzania banks also make a lot of money in forex
Most major Banks in Tanzania banks don’t make losses and that is why you will see chief executive officers being paid salary in the range of $23,530 - $35,295. Word on the street is that C.E.O's and top managers in Barclays, CRDB, Standard Chattered, NBC, Exim Bank and other co-operative bank are among the highest paid in the banking industry of Tanzania
