Technical Assistance & Capacity Building
Our technical assistance and capacity building programmes are designed to equip financial regulators, supervisors and public sector institutions to oversee, regulate and supervise innovations in the market.
We provide the practical tools, skills, and guidance they need to harness innovation safely and effectively, turning complex, fast-moving developments in financial innovation into real-world capability, enabling authorities to build more inclusive, sustainable and resilient financial systems.
How we’ll work together
Capacity building
Fii establishes educational courses and resources in collaboration with strategic partners across the globe.
Outputs include developed course modules, online learning platforms, and certification programmes focused on financial innovation and governance.
Bespoke training
We deliver workshops, seminars, and capacity building sessions for policymakers and regulatory authorities. In addition, our training-of-trainers programmes and toolkits enable local, sustainable capacity.
Collaboration and network development
We hold multi-stakeholder roundtable events, establish working groups, and launch communities of practice. This is coupled with our promotion and facilitation of innovation experiences, practices and lessons to enable peer learning and knowledge transfer.
Fostering communities: our global policy, regulatory and market partnerships, networks, and forums promote knowledge sharing, including through closed digital community platforms.
Co-creating capstone projects: capstone projects allow for the application of regulatory interventions against a wide set of institutional challenges. Fii’s database of capstone projects based on impactful, transferable and scalable regulatory initiatives serves as a unique and valuable reference for the evolving expectations, demands and priorities for public authorities.
Outcomes
Policymakers and regulators use the evidence and recommendations we provide to adopt key policy reforms and regulatory improvements, creating a more supportive strategy and policy environment that accelerates sustainable development, innovation, and technology adoption.
With enhanced institutional capacity, financial authorities and institutions apply new skills to oversee digital financial services more effectively, manage risks, and implement policies with greater confidence - resulting in more informed decision‑making, efficient regulatory processes, and proactive supervision of emerging financial activities.
At the same time, the multi‑stakeholder partnerships and forums facilitated by Fii strengthen collaboration across regulators, industry, and civil society, enabling ongoing knowledge‑sharing and coordinated action well beyond our initial projects.
Technical assistance programmes
Institutional strengthening: we offer market and regulatory diagnostic assessments - tailored, institution-specific workshops to build capacity on priority topics - and support in shaping strategies, and with drafting policy and regulatory frameworks. These practical tools help standardise best practices and support the rollout of new policies or technologies, advancing our mission of impact.
Technology enhancement: we can advise on the development of prototype tools or the enhancement of existing platforms that support financial regulation and oversight, informing and promoting beneficial market innovations.
