AFI is delighted to welcome the Central Bank of Bosnia and Herzegovina (CBBH) as a new Principal Member. 

Established in 1997, and headquartered in Sarajevo, the Central Bank defines and controls the implementation of monetary policy, supports and maintains payment and settlement systems, and co-ordinates the activities of bank licensing and supervision agencies. 

“Membership of AFI is an important step in strengthening our capacity to develop policies that will advance the financial inclusion of citizens and businesses,” said CBBH Governor, Dr. Jasmina Selimovic. “Through our cooperation with AFI, we will have access to a rich treasure trove of knowledge and experience, that will support our initiatives and accelerate their impact.”  

“AFI is honored to welcome CBBH, an organization that is deeply committed to implementing inclusive policies,” said Dr Alfred Hannig, AFI Chief Executive Officer. “We look forward to supporting their work, while benefiting from their participation in AFI Working Groups and initiatives. CBBH’s input and experience will be of great value to our global network.” 

CBBH received support from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the European Fund for South-East Europe, to join the AFI network. You can learn more about CBBH’s work to advance financial inclusion and financial education here.
