The Central Bank of Eswatini (formerly Swaziland) and technology group Giesecke+Devrient investigate the development of an electronic form of money for the Kingdom of Eswatini.

In a much-maligned scheme Italy’s government aimed at encouraging cashless payments by reimbursing a part of the sum paid with ec cards. Recently the European Central Bank wrote a letter of concern to Rome over the matter – not for nothing.

The Bank of Ghana pilots with Giesecke+Devrient a digital currency in Ghana. The e-Cedi makes payments without a bank account possible and offers the advantage of highly secure transactions.
