Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT) Forum

Forum Overview

Supporting the effective clearing and settlement of EFT payment instructions with modern operational standards.


Scope of Operations

The Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Forum provides a collaborative platform for payment system participants to govern and support the effective clearing and settlement of EFT transactions in Namibia. The forum focuses on developing, maintaining, and reviewing operational standards, clearing rules, and compliance frameworks. It plays a critical role in optimizing EFT batch processing, managing transaction settlement windows, and ensuring the smooth and efficient functioning of both credit and debit transfer systems.

Through collaborative self-regulation, standard-setting, and risk monitoring, PAN coordinating forums ensure high systemic safety, legal compliance, and operational interoperability across Namibia's national payments market.
