ICTP 212: Digital identity and why it ought to be the first step in a country’s digital transformation and fintech efforts, with Trevor Forrest
Across the Caribbean region, considerable attention is being paid to financial inclusion and fintech, with digital identity (ID) taking a back seat. However, it has been argued in some quarters that digital IDs are a foundation element in countries’ digital transformation and fintech efforts.
Trevor Forrest, of 876 Solutions, sheds some light on digital IDs, including:
- Why is it becoming increasingly important to have a digital ID?
- What are the benefits of having a digital ID?
- What can countries do to develop trust in digital ID?
- And what is the potential and what could be the implications of heightened surveillance via digital IDs?
