A business trip to Fiji is always an exceptional experience. At HSG, we appreciate our partners’ cordial, transparent, and upfront communication approach in this South Pacific business hub.
Typically, we’ll find ourselves in Suva ward, the Central Business District, where we revel in the traditional colonial architecture, modern buildings, and delicious eats like Curry Vakalolo.
We bring all this up because Fiji’s current finance industry landscape means we–at HSG–will be visiting the island more frequently.
The Financial Industry Landscape In Fiji
In March of this year, HFC Bank began a partnership with TCS BaNCS, investing $40 million into digital enhancements in its new core banking system.
The areas of enhancement reach across six facets:
● New digital experience
● Data warehousing
● Trade finance
● Financial management
● Treasury management
● Core banking platform
This massive shift toward digital banking and fintech for HFC Bank lines up with the Fiji Financial Sector Development Plan. To illustrate, here’s a breakdown of some of the core pillars of this overarching plan:
● Focus on adopting cutting-edge technologies (e.g., e-lending, e-wallet), promoting more efficient settlement and payment services.
● Commit to developing non-bank financial institutions (e.g., fintech).
● Strengthen consumer protection and harness sustainable financial inclusion.
