The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) recently invited applications from the market for a new license: a retail digital bank license. The SBP’s objective was to materially increase financial inclusion, reduce inefficiencies, and improve customer journeys. Pakistan is a paper-based economy, and manual processes are still common, resulting in low financial inclusion and high costs. The digital bank license is an attempt to modernize the banking system and increase access to financial services.
