Opportunities for Digital Financial Services in the Rice Value Chain in Bangladesh

This infographic was informed by an assessment mSTAR/Bangladesh did for IRRI looking specifically at opportunities for mobile financial services (MFS) in the rice value chain. We have expanded those recommendations here to focus more broadly on digital financial services, including internet and agent banking, which are captured under the Bank payment flow. While many of the transactions presented below are currently being made in cash, this infographic presents a vision for what digitizing those payments might look like.
