The Centre for Excellence in Financial Inclusion (CEFI) was established in 2013 to promote the financial inclusion agenda and coordinate and monitor all financial inclusion activities in Papua New Guinea.

Since 2013, unprecedented progress for financial inclusion has been achieved. CEFI and the Bank of Papua New Guinea (PNG) have been working with financial institutions in the country towards developing and promoting PNG’s financial inclusion agenda – this is underpinned by the National Financial Inclusion Strategy.
