Kunene further thanked the Central Bank of Lesotho for their recent contribution towards the National Payments Switch Project which was extremely helpful in providing practical lessons and creating reflection points on how the Central Bank of Eswatini could better roll out its current payment switch initiatives.
“We remain grateful to the Central Bank of Lesotho for being always ready to welcome our staff for different kinds of interactions,” she said.
