Project Description

The project is aimed at producing a set of operating rules for an industry-led mobile financial services scheme and will proceed in three phases. The first phase of the project lays the groundwork through a legal and market review, the formation of a project and functional expert team and stakeholder engagement and endorsement of the proposed project plan. The second phase of the project will consist of a series of education and/or training workshops to align industry players and guide them as they draft the new rules. In phase three, the industry players will finalise a set of Scheme Rules (often referred to as Operating Regulations) for Mobile Financial Services.
