Introduction

  • On 09 February 2021, the Governor of the BEAC issued Instruction No. 001/GR/2021 defining the operating procedures of the central registry of payment incidents.
  • This instruction follows on from instruction n°02/GR/UMAC of 07 May 2014 relating to the implementation of multi-banking as part of the electronic money issuing activity.
  • These 02 instructions, which reflect the sub-regional monetary authority's adherence to the principles organising payment systems through the development of regulations on payment systems, means and incidents that provide a framework for digital payments, financial risk management, the security and reliability of transactions, participation criteria, governance and the management of payment incidents
  • At national level, the government is implementing a reform of the Single Treasury Account (CUT), which aims to bring payment systems into line with standards by reducing the circulation of banknotes and coins.
  • Responsibility for organising and managing digital payments is clearly assigned to COBAC, BEAC and MINFI. The regulations also specify the roles of the other players: GIMAC, commercial banks, microfinance institutions, payment institutions, mobile phone operators, payment aggregators, supervisory agencies, telecoms regulators and civil society organisations.
