2026 SADC Financial Inclusion Forum - Day 2

Commemorating 10 Years of Regional Financial Inclusion Day 2 of the 2026 SADC Financial Inclusion Forum continues the conversation on advancing financial inclusion across the SADC region. The day opens with an update on the SADC TCIB (Transactions Cleared on Immediate Basis) scheme — the region's instant cross-border payment solution, covering governance, interoperability, and implementation progress. A panel discussion then explores Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) across Seychelles, Tanzania, South Africa, and Mauritius, examining how digital identity, e-KYC, and digital payments drive financial inclusion and regional interoperability. The afternoon features an interactive working session asking: Beyond Access — What Does Financial Health Mean for Our Region? exploring financial health measurement across SADC consumer and MSME segments. The forum closes with a demand-testing session for the FinMark Trust Financial Inclusion Capacity Building Programme, gathering delegate input to shape its priorities. 📍 South African Reserve Bank, Pretoria 🗓️ 6 May 2026 🌐 www.finmark.org.za/SADC_FI_Forum/
