This week, the Bank of Namibia and Banco de Moçambique signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), to reaffirm their longstanding relationship and commitment to advancing central banking excellence in the southern African region. The signing took place on the margins of the Committee of Central Bank Governors (CCBG) Meetings, hosted by the Bank of Tanzania in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The MoU provides a framework for the two central banks to enhance collaboration in areas of mutual interest. These areas include digital transformation and innovation, payment systems modernisation, fintech, financial stability, monetary policy and macroprudential oversight, climate risk, governance, capacity building and currency museums. The signing builds on a bilateral discussion held in September 2025 during the Alliance for Financial Inclusion (@NewsAFI) Global Policy Forum (GPF) in Swakopmund, Namibia, where discussions between the two central banks highlighted a shared commitment to knowledge exchange, capacity development and institutional excellence. During the signing ceremony, the Governor of the Bank of Namibia, Mr Ebson Uanguta, noted that Africa's most enduring progress is achieved through cooperation and mutual learning. He emphasised that strong institutions are built not only through expertise and innovation, but also through a willingness to learn from one another. He further highlighted that while the Bank of Namibia's Currency Museum Project provided the initial motive for the engagement between the two institutions, the MoU creates broader opportunities for collaboration across a wide spectrum of central banking functions. The two institutions will strengthen their capabilities through staff exchanges, secondments, joint research projects and other forms of technical cooperation and assistance with the aim to effectively respond to the changing financial and economic landscape. This partnership is underpinned by a shared vision of building resilient, innovative and future-ready central banks that contribute to the sustainable economic development and financial stability of the region and the broader African continent.

This week, the Bank of Namibia was awarded the Artificial Intelligence Initiative Award at the 2026 Central Banking Awards in London, recognising the Bank's pioneering use of artificial intelligence and machine learning to strengthen policymaking, financial sector oversight and operational efficiency. The prestigious event, organised by Central Banking Publications, celebrates exceptional achievements within the central banking community. The award acknowledges innovative solutions developed by the Bank, including a non-performing loans predictive model that provides early warning signals on banking sector risks, an inflation nowcasting system that delivers near real-time inflation estimates to support monetary policy decisions, and a Regulatory Navigation Tool that enhances access to regulatory information. The award was received on behalf of the Bank by Ms Valeria Mbango, Director: Strategy, Projects & Transformation, and Ms Olivia Haenert, Deputy Director: Digital Transformation & Innovation. Beyond its internal transformation efforts, the Bank continues to invest in Namibia's digital future through initiatives such as the Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Accelerator Laboratory, established in partnership with the Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST), which is helping to develop the next generation of Namibian AI and robotics talent. As part of the programme, Ms Mbango also joined central banking leaders from across the world for a panel discussion on "AI for Central Banks: Unlocking Insight, Preserving Judgement, and Informing Policy", where participants explored how artificial intelligence is reshaping research, forecasting, supervision, payments oversight and market surveillance, while emphasising the importance of robust governance, human oversight and responsible AI adoption. This recognition reflects the Bank's commitment to embracing innovation, strengthening institutional effectiveness, and leveraging technology to support a resilient, inclusive and future-ready financial system for Namibia.

The Bank of Namibia hosted its Annual Internal Audit Awareness Day under the theme, “The Role of Internal Audit in Enhancing Public Sector Governance.” The event convened internal auditors, policymakers and representatives from public entities to engage in discussions aimed at strengthening strategic governance and advancing the role of internal audit in the public sector. Deputy Governor Nicholas Mukasa emphasised the importance of reimagining the future of internal audit by focusing on the systemic challenges reshaping the profession, the strategic role and positioning of internal audit within governance structures, the profession’s evolving trajectory over the next decade and the practical steps required to future-proof internal audit functions in an increasingly complex environment. Participants also gained valuable insights from the Office of the Auditor-General on key issues emerging from external audits of public entities, including audit outcomes, the Zero Fault Audit Directive, and the proposed Internal Auditors Bill 2026, which seeks to strengthen the legislative framework governing the profession. The Internal Audit Awareness Day concluded with discussions centered on accountability, capacity building and the development of more effective public institutions. Participants reaffirmed the shared responsibility of establishing enabling policies and frameworks that allow internal audit functions to operate effectively, independently, and with objective assurance. The Bank of Namibia was also privileged to welcome the Chief Executive Officer of the Municipality of Swakopmund, Mr Alfeus Benjamin.

The Bank of Namibia yesterday hosted its second Seminar under the theme, “Housing in Namibia: Tracking Progress, Uncovering Gaps, and Identifying Scalable Solutions,” bringing together policymakers, financial institutions, housing practitioners, development partners, local authorities, and other stakeholders to deliberate on one of Namibia’s most pressing developmental and economic challenges. The seminar formed part of the Bank’s broader series aimed at strengthening evidence-based policy dialogue and collaboration on issues of national importance. The Governor of the Bank of Namibia, Mr. Ebson Uanguta, highlighted that housing is central to Namibia’s development agenda and must be recognised not only as strategic economic infrastructure that supports productivity, labour mobility, financial resilience, urban efficiency, and inclusive growth but also as a basic human right. The Governor noted that Namibia’s housing challenge has continued to intensify amid rapid urbanisation, population growth, limited serviced land, affordability constraints and rising construction costs. He noted that Namibia is now 53 percent urbanised, while the average house price in Windhoek has surpassed N$1.4 million, placing formal home ownership increasingly beyond the reach of many Namibians, particularly low- and middle-income households. He cautioned that if urbanisation continues to outpace infrastructure delivery, serviced land provision, and integrated spatial planning, Namibia risks expanding informal settlements, widening inequality, increasing pressure on public services, and growing social and economic vulnerability.
