Background
The FinTech Center of the General Secretariat of the Non-Bank Financial Services Authority (FSA) serves as the focal point for coordinating technology development and innovation initiatives related to Cambodia’s non-bank financial sector. The Non-Bank Financial Services Authority (FSA) is the regulatory authority for non-bank financial services in Cambodia.
A Prakas is a formal administrative order used by Cambodian authorities to establish regulatory mechanisms or implement administrative rules at the authority or ministry level. On 19 June 2026, Mr. RIN Ratha (Director of the Trust Registration Department) and Mr. CHES Chandet (Head of IT Management Division) from the Trust Regulator attended a meeting at the FSA FinTech Center to review and discuss a draft Prakas proposing the creation of a Financial Technology Development and Innovation Network within the FSA.
Scope of Application
The draft Prakas under review concerns the establishment of the Financial Technology Development and Innovation Network of the Non-Bank Financial Services Authority. The meeting was attended by representatives of regulators and units under the FSA and was chaired by SOU Sophea, Director of the FinTech Center of the FSA General Secretariat.
Key Provisions or Decisions
The document discussed at the meeting is a Draft Prakas proposing the formal creation of a network to support fintech development and innovation under the FSA. The Trust Regulator delegation participated in the review and discussion of the draft text during the session held at the FinTech Center meeting room.
Implications for Investors, Businesses, or Compliance
If the Prakas is adopted and promulgated, it would establish an internal governance structure within the FSA to coordinate fintech-related development and innovation activities across units of the authority. Stakeholders in the non-bank financial sector and technology providers can expect the Prakas to provide an official administrative basis for FSA-led coordination, although the draft provides the procedural framework rather than specific operational requirements at this stage.
