Hear from our partners and stakeholders about their experience with digital payments transformation
The digital revolution offers Indonesia an opportunity to fast-track our economic development, and importantly, to ensure that our economic growth is inclusive. Digital financial services are an important facet of this revolution. It is imperative that Indonesian women, who are key economic agents, have equal access to digital financial products and services that cater to their needs and aspirations.
Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, by promoting financial inclusion and developing digital payments, is a key priority for the Central Bank of Jordan. We reaffirm our commitment to reducing the gender gap and supporting the active participation of women in the formal economy of Jordan.
Digital finance is on the march, and the COVID-19 pandemic has now accelerated the move from physical to virtual banking. As the world moves from cash to digital payments, all stakeholders must support responsible practices to help build a digital future that treats everyone fairly – especially women – while driving down poverty and spurring inclusive economic growth.
Acknowledging gender-based differences in access and use of financial products and services helps prevent discrimination against women and foster their empowerment. We will continue driving an increasingly inclusive financial system, in order to boost well-being and social mobility in our country.
