The Central Bank received the Awards at the 2024 Payment, Innovation and Technology Week held from the September 23 to September 26, 2024, in London, United Kingdom, organised by Currency Research.
The Award was also in recognition of the Bank’s ecosystem engagement approach, which included the participation of banks and payment service providers during the eCedi pilot and eCedi Hackathon.
