For too long, governance, risk, compliance, and financial crime prevention (GRC & FinCrime) frameworks in Africa have been imported from external models. While global standards such as FATF, Basel, and OECD guidelines are essential, they often fail to fully reflect Africa’s diverse legal systems, institutional realities, and socio-economic conditions. Localising GRC and Financial Crime Prevention means: Designing homegrown regulatory systems that meet international expectations while addressing unique local risks. Embedding cultural and community realities into compliance practices, ensuring solutions are practical and enforceable. Empowering African-led innovation in RegTech, compliance systems, and monitoring tools that reflect local languages, infrastructures, and priorities. Strengthening grassroots enforcement so policies move beyond paper into everyday business, banking, and community interactions.
