The U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA), in collaboration with Rand Merchant Bank (RMB), will bring public and private sector decision-makers together to discuss the enabling environment and new approaches to African cross-border payments in support of trade and investment between the United States and Africa.
This conference will highlight challenges and explore key measures to improve financial inclusion across African markets and unlock further USD denominated trade flows. Various payment processing mechanisms will be showcased, including RMB’s Africa Gateway payment processing solution, and U.S. software providers will demonstrate the latest developments in payment processing technologies.
The U.S. Trade and Development Agency helps companies create U.S. jobs through the export of U.S. goods and services for priority infrastructure projects in emerging economies. USTDA links U.S. businesses to export opportunities by funding project preparation and partnership building activities that develop sustainable infrastructure and foster economic growth in partner countries.
