Dear readers,
We are living in dynamic times, facing multiple new challenges
every day. Digital technology has become an effective tool to fix
these challenges. In this edition we will discuss how digital
financial services have become one such effective digital tool to
address the global challenges.
Undoubtedly, the biggest challenge the world is facing currently is
the Coronavirus pandemic, which has spread to over 160 countries.
In our first article we will discuss how “Adopting Digital Payments and
Remote Banking in the Time of COVID-19” can strengthen our fight
against this pandemic.
Another global challenge widely discussed these days is climate
change. In our second article “Green Financial Inclusion and
Mobile Money” we will learn how mobile money is helping to create
resilience to climate change.
Next, in the article “Myanmar – Land of Opportunities for Fintech
Players“ we explore how Myanmar, once considered to be most
isolated economy, has overcome this challenge with the help of
digital financial services and witnessed a remarkable economic
transition.
Lastly, we learn about how Banque Populaire de Mauritanie in
Mauritania is addressing the challenge of financial exclusion and
banking modernization through its mobile banking service Bankily
in the article “What’s New?- Bankily”.
I hope you like reading these articles, as much as we loved
creating them.
Happy Reading!
