The report elaborates a strategic approach to the development of sound and dynamic ecosystems for the provision of digital payment services (DPS) as foundations for effective financial digitalization and development of digital economy in MENA countries. The report is not about intervening in the MENA region through a coordinated regional strategic plan; rather, it describes what MENA countries should do to modernize their DPS ecosystems, starting from their own initial conditions. To this purpose, it identifies steps that are tailored to those initial conditions and delineates a strategic approach that national authorities may consider when designing their own strategy for modernizing DPS. 2021-07-21T18:52:27Z 2021-07-21T18:52:27Z 2021-07-16 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/206121625810043720/Developing-Digital-Payment-Services-in-the-Middle-East-and-North-Africa-A-Strategic-Approach http://hdl.handle.net/10986/36000 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work Economic & Sector Work :: Other Financial Sector Study Middle East and North Africa Middle East North Africa
