| description |
Similar to other low-income countries,
in Myanmar social protection benefits are usually provided
through direct cash or food distribution. With the rapid
development of the financial and telecommunications market
in the country, there is the potential for a gradual
transition to electronic payment systems for current and
future social protection transfers, once adequate legal and
regulatory frameworks are in place. This will make the
delivery of payments cheaper, quicker, safer, and more
transparent. In addition, increasing the connectivity of the
people of Myanmar, especially the poor and vulnerable, to
financial services will not only accelerate povertyreduction
but also promote inclusive economic growth. |
