The conference is expected to bring together high level policymakers, business leaders, economists and financiers.

The inaugural Euromoney Kenya Conference will be themed ‘Financial Inclusion 2.0: Expanding Kenya’s Digital Financial Ecosystem’ 

The conference is set to deliberate on development of digital business and the financial ecosystem.

The conference is jointly organised by the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) and the Kenya Bankers Association (KBA).

“As is widely recognised, financial inclusion holds the promise of harnessing collaboration between financial sector players, including financial service providers and technology service providers, to achieve social ends such as inclusive economic growth, sustainable development and poverty alleviation,” read a statement from the organisers.

Kenya is seen as a front runner in financial inclusion through digital innovations and CBK and KBA will during the conference be expected to share its experiences and potential to develop further.
