“It is exciting to see MT4D taking off as a leading event within the country,” said Dr. Ken Ashigbey, CEO, GCT.

He said “Digital financial service providers are leveraging data and innovative financial technologies to drive consumer satisfaction, and we need to work together to consolidate Ghana’s growth.”

MT4D will target policy makers, regulators, banks, payment system providers, electronic money issuers, development partners and more, with the objective of unpacking Ghana’s own issues relating to advancing financial inclusion and the role of each of these stakeholders in achieving that long-term goal.

Dr. William Derban, Chair of FIF Africa, said, “Mobile technology has revolutionized the way people access and use financial services across Africa. This event offers an opportunity for stakeholders to share ideas on how we can leverage on new technologies to go beyond access and usage to wealth creation and growth.”
