Removing bottlenecks in trading activities within the AFCFTA has been identified as a trigger for smart intra-Africa trade to fast track progress, grow confidence across board; the incentives & advantages must spread on mass communication, business channels, SMEs, manufacturers, govt. and all platforms.
The Pan-African Payment and Settlement System (PAPSS) was lunched and tested successfully since 2021. Now this instrument has already been linked to All the Central Banks of member states and many commercial banks have already keyed into the payment system.
