This book comprehensively analyses financial technology law and regulation in Africa and provides domestic and regional perspectives on regulating FinTech in Africa. It studies policy considerations that can assist African policymakers in facilitating a balanced regulatory approach that does not stifle financial innovation.The growth of financial technology in Africa presents huge opportunities for inclusive growth on the African continent. Digital finance, which sits at the heart of financial technology, could be key to placing Africa back on the economic recovery trajectory after the COVID-19 crisis, facilitating its speed in achieving the UNSDG 2030 goals and setting the continent on course to meet its African Union Agenda 2063. This book:- Examines mobile financial services, crowdfunding, crypto-assets, digital currencies including central bank digital currencies, decentralised finance and open banking and finance, all from an African perspective;- Explores the status of regulation in these areas in Africa, highlighting areas where regulation is lacking, inadequate and in need of reform;- Highlights pragmatic approaches to regulation such as including the adoption of regulatory sandboxes and regulatory technology and discusses requirements for the adoption of supervisory technology in Africa;- Scrutinises the implications of developments in the FinTech space in Africa for international security and economic and financial stability.Placing Africa in the global context, the book argues for an international effort to understand the global dimensions of FinTech developments so that robust and applicable global regulatory frameworks can be applied in developing parts of the world. It will provide useful insights to investors, policy makers and entrepreneurs. It will also be essential reading for students and researchers in the field of technology, public policy, regulatory policy, financial policy, banking, and finance law.

In the wake of the global financial crisis, there has been a worldwide search for alternative investment opportunities, away from advanced markets. The African continent is now one of the fastest-growing economic regions in the world and represents a viable destination for foreign direct and portfolio investment. This book, which is the first comprehensive analysis of financial integration and regulation in Africa, fills a huge gap in the literature on financial regulation and would constitute an invaluable source of information to policy makers, investors, researchers and students of financial regulation from an emerging and frontier markets perspective. It considers how financial integration can facilitate African financial markets to achieve their full potential and provides a comparative study with the EU framework for financial integration and regulation. It assesses the implementation of effective and regional domestic infrastructures and how these can be adapted to suit the African context. The book also provides an assessment of government policies towards the integration of financial regulation in keeping with the regional agenda of the African Union (AU) and the African Economic Community (AEC).

The Metaverse can be defined as an immersive 3-D simulated digital environment that deploys technologies like augmented reality, virtual reality, blockchain, and artificial intelligence to imitate the real world and allow people to conduct daily activities through digital versions of themselves (avatars). The opportunities brought by the metaverse for the economy and the society are wide in scope from business models to equitable education possibilities. This prompts regulators and policymakers around the world to assess the crucial legal and regulatory issues that arise in the process of metaverse development. This book offers a comprehensive understanding of metaverse innovation from technological, financial, and legal perspectives. It offers the basics of the metaverse, such as its enabling technologies, main characteristics and the global trends that shape its development. It also reviews the positive and negative impact of the metaverse on different sectors of the economy as well as the implications for policy and law.
