The conversations at BankingX

The decisions shaping banking’s next chapter.

BankingX brings banking leaders and technology specialists together to discuss digital channels, customer onboarding and the systems behind them.

Why Angola · Why now

Two billion operations.
How much pressure can the system take?

In the first half of 2026, Angola’s national interbank payments network recorded two billion operations, up 37.8% year on year. Its mobile channel reached approximately 3.2 million users, with operation volumes rising 55.3% over the same half-year period.

Angola’s national financial inclusion ambition is equally clear: 65% by 2027. Reaching more people demands services that are accessible, dependable and affordable to deliver.
