The key objectives of the study were to: Clarify the KYC requirements for opening and operating different digital financial services (DFS) accounts; understand how financial service providers are interpreting and implementing KYC requirements for the aforementioned accounts today; assess the impact of the interpretation and implementation of KYC requirements on DFS adoption; and offer recommendations for addressing KYC challenges to foster DFS growth and uptake.
