This program will empower supervisors to better understand Digital Financial Services (DFS) and the implications of these emerging technologies. DFS have grown rapidly in many countries, offering the potential to increase financial inclusion and spur innovation and competition in the financial sector.
Participants will learn through group activities and case studies how to assess the risks in DFS products and processes, the potential threats to financial stability and market conduct mandates, and how to formulate an appropriate supervisory strategy.
