What's driving real-time payments in the Middle East?
Regional government entities in the Middle East have taken notice of instant payments recently with initiatives launched across the region including Buna, a cross-border payments platform launched by the Arab Monetary Fund, and the GCC RTGS launched by the Gulf Cooperation Council. Additionally, local governments have recently introduced instant payment systems, including Saudi Payments in Saudi Arabia while the UAE has also announced plans for an expanded instant payments scheme domestically.
