The UPU also provides its member countries with technical assistance to improve their contribution to financial inclusion at the national level. With support from Visa Inc. and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the UPU has been able to establish a new Financial Inclusion Technical Assistance Facility (FITAF) to champion postal action on inclusive digital financial services, conduct research to identify key actions, and provide qualifying Posts with technical assistance to improve and expand their capabilities. Check out the “FITAF” section for more information.
