Capabilities

What we deliver

Five capabilities that make the market programme work.

A bank joining the Programme needs more than a contract and a channel. It needs staff who understand cross-border local-currency operations, systems that can hold the throughput the network requires, and material its own market can read in Dari and Pashto.

Cross-border regulatory and compliance advisory

Establishing the shared framework that lets two banks in two jurisdictions contract with each other directly.

Local-currency treasury matching

Identifying and arranging the counterparty positions that let member banks hold and settle in each other’s currencies.

Institutional training and certification

University-accredited programmes for member bank staff, delivered with an education partner.

Network technology assurance

Auditing core banking, switching, card and merchant systems against the throughput standards the network requires.

Programme communications

Multilingual publication and localisation, in Dari, Pashto and English.

What this is, and is not

All five are advisory, arrangement, training and communications work. HAEMPCS does not obtain, hold or share a financial services licence, does not act for a bank before its regulator, and does not assume any part of a member bank’s regulatory obligation. It does not hold, receive, transfer or settle funds.
