What is the Training About?

Governments make millions of payments which typically include social transfers as well as wage and pension payments. Digitizing these payments have proved to have reduced cost of transfer, mitigated risks of fraud and corruption and enhanced financial inclusion. A number of AFI members have accordingly made digitizing government payments part of their Maya Declaration commitments. This training focuses on how and why to promote digitization of G2P payments and its implication on policy and regulation.

Who Should Attend?

The training is open to those who are attending the New Frontiers in Digital Financial Services Training, which is targeted for countries which have made substantial progress in DFS and considers G2P payment a priority area of intervention. The training will be beneficial for those who have been involved in DFS related work for at least 3 years and who is involved in the operational as well as policy issues related to DFS.
