| Summary: | This note documents the experience of
several countries that leveraged these tools under the
Financial Inclusion Support Framework (FISF) program. FISF
is a World Bank Group initiative that aims to accelerate and
increase the effectiveness of reforms and other country-led
actions to achieve national financial inclusion goals. In
this context, FISF has supported, to varying degrees, the
digitization of government payments in Côte d’Ivoire,
Indonesia, Mozambique, Vietnam, and Zambia. The rest of the
note is structured as follows: Section II covers a survey of
retail payment costs conducted in Pakistan. Section III
documents the government payment mapping exercise undertaken
in Côte d’Ivoire, while section IV discusses the resulting
roadmap for implementation. Section V presents some
implementation challenges and learnings in digitizing
government payments in FISF countries. |
