These four countries and India would be the founding members and first-mover nations of this platform, the RBI said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An agreement to this effect was signed by the BIS and the central banks of the founding countries i.e., Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM), Bank of Thailand (BOT), Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), and Reserve Bank of India on June 30, 2024, in Basel, Switzerland, according to an RBI statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indonesia, which has been involved from the early stages, continues to be involved as a special observer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The RBI has been collaborating bilaterally with various countries to link India\u2019s Fast Payments System (FPS) \u2013 the Unified Payments Interface (UPI), with their respective FPSs for cross-border Person to Person (P2P) and Person to Merchant (P2M) payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhile India and its partner countries can continue to benefit through such bilateral connectivity of Fast Payment Systems, a multilateral approach will provide further impetus to our efforts in expanding the international reach of Indian payment systems,\u201d the RBI said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The platform can be extended to more countries, going forward. The platform is expected to go live by 2026.
