infrastructure has partnered with the Namibia Financial Institutions Supervisory Authority
(NAMFISA) for the second and sought-after Fintech Square at the launch of NAMFISA
Regulatory Sandbox. This innovative event centers on Fintech: The Africa Experience, and
is designed to present pioneering innovations while helping to mitigate risks emerging from
the financial services industry.

With a 71.2% economically active population and a 91% literacy rate according to the World

partnership will help identify opportunities, drive collaboration, and foster innovation toward
building a digital identity framework for the country, thus advancing its digital economy at
large.

online security solutions across emerging markets, having worked with governments and
regulatory bodies in over 40 African countries. With tailored solutions, the company has
advised on policy formulation, compliance, and security needs in various emerging markets.

inclusive and interoperable comprehensive system that supports innovation while meeting

framework for Namibia. This partnership further demonstrates our vision to strengthen
innovation and inclusion in Africa, and we are committed to leveraging our expertise and
resources to drive this mission forward”, says Prembly’s co-founder/COO, Niyi Adegboye
The fintech industry in Africa has seen a remarkable surge in growth over the past eight
years, as businesses have rapidly embraced new technologies and shifted to digital
platforms. To fully capitalize on this dynamic market, it is critical to assess the market
restrictions and provide solutions that impact digital identity systems.

“The partnership with Prembly brings expertise in compliance and digital security to the
table. We’re most grateful to have received support from Prembly which aligns with
NAMFISA's mission to regulate and supervise Namibia's financial sector in a manner that
fosters innovation, financial inclusion, and stability., says Kenneth Matomola, CEO,
NAMFISA.
