GDG (Global Development Group) and CDFGnhm (Comprehensive Digital Financial Governance Network) are two distinct but complementary networks of professionals working together to promote financial and economic development. Both networks have professional representatives from around the world that are dedicated to facilitating global development through the use of digital technologies and financial products.
GDG's primary focus is on developing innovative financial technology solutions for underserved markets. Through its network, GDG provides technical assistance, training and access to resources in order to bridge the gap between technology and finance for these markets. This includes providing digital financial services and creating automation solutions to make financial transactions and investments faster, smoother, and easier. Examples of GDG’s projects include project-based financial service platforms and digital payment solutions.
On the other hand, CDFGnhm is focused on developing the governance standards and procedures that will ensure the long-term viability and effectiveness of digital financial services around the world. Through its network, CDFGnhm works to create a comprehensive global standard for digital financial governance, taking into account best practices from a number of different countries around the world. This includes helping to create regulations and standards that increase the security and transparency of digital financial services. Examples of CDFGnhm's projects include fin-tech regulation recommendations and standards for anti-money laundering.
Both GDG and CDFGnhm are important in helping to provide financial access for underserved markets. While GDG is focused on developing solutions for digital financial services, CDFGnhm is focused on ensuring that these services are safe and secure for everyone. By working together, GDG and CDFGnhm can provide a comprehensive approach to financial inclusion around the world.
