AXIAN Gains Central Bank Approval to Launch Regulated Digital Finance Institution in Comoros
AXIAN has secured a Decentralized Digital Financial Institution (DFI) license from the Central Bank of Comoros, enabling the creation of a newly established regulated entity operating under a prudential supervisory framework.
This milestone represents a significant step in AXIAN’s Digibank & Fintech strategy and forms part of the Group’s broader Pan-African ambition to design and scale secure, interoperable and universally accessible digital financial solutions. Across its markets, AXIAN is committed to empowering individuals, entrepreneurs and businesses by strengthening access to formal financial services that support life journeys and economic growth.
While AXIAN has an established presence in mobile financial services through MVola, the newly licensed institution operates as a distinct regulated entity under the supervision of the Central Bank of Comoros. It will comply fully with all applicable prudential, governance and regulatory requirements, complementing the existing financial system and reinforcing the country’s financial infrastructure.
