The question at hand is how to expand the digital financial services ecosystem beyond basic money transfer, savings, and micro-credit. Innovative solutions are needed to provide a range of digital financial services, from simple money transfer platforms to payment solutions, savings, micro-insurance, financial planning and access to capital markets securities. What framework would ensure that the benefit of financial inclusion are sustained?
Ladies and Gentlemen, the Central Bank is very pleased to demonstrate its strong support for GHL’s capital raising initiative. It is an added bonus that GHL’s partner in this transaction is a progressive reputable global development institution with deep pockets. This partnership should bring significant benefits to the financial services industry in Trinidad and Tobago, and the Caribbean. 2  BIS Review 167/2010
