Click on image to enlarge

The Taskforce on the Money Services Business Strategic Blueprint was set up by the Association in January 2021 pursuant to the Money Services Business Regulator’s (MSBR) aspiration for the Association to continue its efforts to modernise and transform the MSB industry into a progressive and professional sector for the next 5 years (2022-2026). The inaugural strategic blueprint (SBP) that was crafted in 2015 had successfully identified the 3-fold objectives for the development of the SBP and derived 6 SBP Strategic Outcomes that collectively aimed at meeting the Association’s Vision.
