Introduction:

Non-banking financial institutions (NBFIs) are critical to the financial ecosystem, enabling innovation, financial inclusion, and economic growth by providing diverse services outside the traditional banking sector. In recent years, NBFIs have seen exponential growth, particularly with the rise of electronic payment solutions and currency exchange services. As more companies enter the electronic payments and exchange markets, understanding the regulatory landscape, licensing processes, and operational standards becomes essential for ensuring compliance, managing risks, and achieving sustainable growth.

This intensive 5-day training program delves into the complexities of licensing and regulatory requirements specific to electronic payment and currency exchange companies. Participants will explore the distinct roles these companies play in financial services, their contribution to advancing financial inclusion, and the regulatory oversight required to maintain market integrity and consumer protection.

With financial technology (fintech) reshaping how payments and exchanges operate, NBFIs are facing new challenges and opportunities. This course provides the essential knowledge and skills for professionals to navigate regulatory expectations confidently and to implement robust compliance and risk management frameworks. Attendees will engage in interactive discussions, hands-on case studies, and strategic planning exercises to build a comprehensive understanding of the licensing requirements, regulatory compliance, and best practices for operational excellence in NBFIs.

By the end of this program, participants will be well-equipped to lead their organizations through the evolving landscape of electronic payment and exchange services, ensuring alignment with regulatory mandates while capitalizing on industry innovations and emerging opportunities.
