NFIS Annual Report 2022
In 2022, Bank of Jamaica, in its role as lead
coordinating entity for the implementation of
the National Financial Inclusion Strategy (NFIS),
focused on the targeted thematic areas for
the successful implementation of the NFIS.
These thematic areas sought to empower
consumers through financial literacy initiatives
and proposed legislation on financial consumer
protection; while increasing access to bank
accounts and digital payment solutions.
NFIS Annual Report 2018
After the first year of the successful
implementation of the National Financial
Inclusion Strategy, Jamaica continues to enjoy
the benefits of greater consumer confidence
and innovation in the business environment.
With new entrants into digital finance under the
Electronic Retail Payment Services, there is an
increased urgency on the part of Government
of Jamaica and Bank of Jamaica to build
the enabling environment for innovation and
interconnectivity in the delivery of financial
services to all consumers. Only by understanding
the needs of the consumers, have financial
service providers harnessed the opportunities
for greater efficiencies through product design
and customer service. To be included, is to be
empowered.
