Project Description

The objective of this project is to support the Central Bank of Tunisia to develop a national strategy for a digital payment ecosystem in Tunisia. This strategy will focus on increasing access to and usage of financial services, particularly payments, for individuals and businesses in Tunisia. To this end, this FIG AS project will apply a modular approach with 3 modules focused on standardizing existing digital payments use cases (e.g. social transfers), developing a strategy and roadmap for new use cases, building capacity and raising awareness.
