Nepal Rastra Bank Prioritizes Digital Infrastructure and E-Payments in Mid-Term Monetary Policy Review

The Nepal Rastra Bank has published the mid-term review of its Monetary Policy for Fiscal Year 2082/83 (2025/26), placing strong emphasis on expanding digital infrastructure and promoting electronic payments.

According to the review, foreign investment will be facilitated in the development of technology-based infrastructure such as data centers, cloud computing, robotics labs, and artificial intelligence (AI). The policy also encourages co-financing loans from banks and financial institutions for such projects. This move is expected to strengthen Nepal’s digital ecosystem and support technology-driven industries and innovation.
