The interview focused on soft tools for risk-based supervision, focus on engagements and guidance. Well noted as our ambition is to develop the market rather than lay a penalty on recently licensed entities in a new market.

It summerizes the module. A risk-based approach helps supervisors support financial inclusion while still preventing money laundering and fraud. Supervisors should give clear guidance on low-risk customers and transactions, use flexible AML/CFT rules, and work closely with providers instead of relying only on inspections and penalties. Technology such as digital ID, eKYC, AI, and digital onboarding can lower costs, improve security, and make financial services more accessible to low-income and vulnerable groups.
