Abstract


Executive Summary of Mobile Money Recommendations
1.It is possible to have a mobile payments sector and ensure high AML/CFT standards

2.If mobile payments are to be launched prudently, the following regulatory foci will allow a successful trajectory:

  • Define e-money and regulate its issuance and transfer
  • Further support a practice of dynamic AML/CFT and fraud modeling
  • Support the development of proportional approaches to KYC/CFT
  • Articulate which entities will enable banks to expand their account opening and/or transactional reach
  • Ensure that relevant consumer regulations are amended to enable consumer recourse and litigation
  • Develop a protocol for coordinating the activities of all regulators
