Burundi Payment Systems and Means Surveillance Framework

The Banque de la République du Burundi has issued a comprehensive surveillance framework to regulate and supervise national payment systems, ensuring their security, efficiency, and systemic resilience. The document mandates continuous off-site monitoring, targeted on-site inspections, and risk-based assessments to mitigate credit, liquidity, operational, legal, and systemic risks across payment service providers and financial market infrastructures. Grounded in recent banking and national payment laws, the framework grants the central bank explicit approval, regulatory, and sanctioning powers to enforce international standards, foster innovation, and maintain overall financial stability.
