Summary
Established in 2013, the SADC-RTGS, an electronic cross-border transfer system that liquidates real-time funds, has so far carried out transactions exclusively in South African rand, with kwanza being the second currency admitted to the system, in which 15 countries participate. Five Angolan commercial banks were also accepted as participants: the Angolan Investment Bank (BAI), the International Credit Bank (BIC), the International Business Bank (BNI), the South Credit Bank (BCS) and the Yetu Bank. The next currency to be integrated should be Botswana's pula in an advanced process.
Furthermore, The creation of a multi-currency capacity in the SADC-RTGS aims to strengthen regional financial integration, promote the use of local currencies in cross-border trade and reduce foreign currency dependence outside the SADC. According to the BNA, the inclusion of kwanza allows institutions operating in this currency to avoid exchange rate conversion through currencies outside the system, which reduces costs, increases speed and improves the security of cross-border transactions.
