LankaPay and many other institutions have now begun to develop new digital platforms for business and trade facilitation and reducing transaction costs in the process. This transformation will help companies to restructure many operational aspects and reduce processes that consume time and incur costs that are considered wasteful.
Shippers’ Academy Colombo is organising a forum to guide the industry with available digital technologies and the future plans of the government and the private sector. The forum will be joined by LankaPay, MasterCard, Central Bank of Sri Lanka, ICTA and National Development Bank’s Trade Link team. This forum will educate the trade and businesses on new solutions that have been developed by institutions, along with security and regulatory aspects discussed by ICTA and CBSL.
The key take-aways and essential knowledge of the forum will be:
* Sri Lanka’s digital payment outlook at a glance
