Abstract
This Financial Sector Assessment (FSA)
is based on the work of the International Monetary Fund
(IMF)-World Bank team that visited Botswana in January and
March 2007. The principal objectives of the team were to
assist the authorities in evaluating the current state of
the financial sector and its developmental needs. The team
focused on five areas: (i) systemic liquidity and the
macro-financial framework; (ii) financial system stability
and its resilience to shocks; (iii) the regulatory and
supervisory framework for banks, pension funds, insurance
companies, and other nonBank financial sectors; (iv)
progress in meeting international standards in banking
supervision, transparency of monetary and financial
policies, payment systems, and antimony laundering and
combating the financing of terrorism; and (v) access to and
affordability of financial services.
