GhIPSS CEO Advocates Stronger CrossBorder Payment Infrastructure at Inclusive FinTech Forum
At the Inclusive FinTech Forum in Kigali, GhIPSS CEO Mrs. Clara B. Arthur joined industry leaders for a conversation on Scaling Beyond Borders in Pan African FinTech. Representing Ghana’s national payments ecosystem, she shared insights on what is required to accelerate sustainable fintech growth across the continent.
She emphasized three essential pillars for expanding fintech solutions beyond domestic markets: robust payment infrastructure, true interoperability, and regulatory collaboration. She noted that without these foundations, Africa’s digital progress will remain fragmented, making it difficult for fintechs and financial institutions to scale into new markets.
She explained that as innovation continues to shape the financial landscape across the continent, Africa must prioritize building modern payment rails that support seamless,
secure, and affordable cross border transactions. These rails, she said, are key enablers of economic participation, continental trade, SME expansion, and the broader ambitions of the AfCFTA.
Mrs Clara Arthur reaffirmed GhIPSS’ commitment to driving Ghana’s payment modernization agenda while actively contributing to regional initiatives aimed at strengthening interoperability and creating a more connected African digital economy.
