    Financial Inclusion at the Margins: Forcibly Displaced Persons, Gender gaps and the Potential of Open Payment Interoperability in Nigeria. This paper draws on a 2024 CBN-led diagnostic survey across seven states (Adamawa, Borno, Benue, Cross River, Katsina, Yobe, and Zamfara)—where over 60% of IDPs reside—to examine financial inclusion among IDPs in camps, IDPs in host communities, refugees, and local residents. Though the current National Financial Inclusion Strategy (NFIS) (2021–2024) does not explicitly target forcibly displaced persons (FDPs), its emphasis on underserved regions, KYC constraints, and non-bank delivery channels aligns with many of their barriers. The diagnostic lays the foundation for FDP inclusion in Nigeria's upcoming NFIS strategy, highlighting that without intentional targeting, FDPs—especially women and rural dwellers—will remain structurally excluded.

    The Magallanes Experiment: How Open Payment Protocols Can Redesign Financial Inclusion in Chile’s Borderlands. This paper examines regulatory gaps in Chile’s payment policies (e.g., Transbank’s monopoly, Fintech Law 2023) and proposes reforms to mandate interoperability as public infrastructure, inspired by models like India’s UPI. It then explores ILP’s technical potential to enable low-cost, cross-border payments in Magallanes, formalizing informal transactions while ensuring security and public oversight. By linking policy (central bank mandates, antitrust rules) with technology (decentralized protocols, governance standards), the paper argues that interoperable systems—when embedded in law—can empower marginalized regions, turning Magallanes into a blueprint for financially excluded yet digitally connected territories worldwide.

    How Money Could Move Us: The Feasibility of Payment Interoperability Among Global Mass Transit Systems. This paper will investigate both the potential and the potential challenges of embracing interoperable digital transaction systems as the primary form of payment within mass transit systems around the world, specifically exploring how the Interledger Protocol (ILP) — a protocol the enables rapid interoperable payments — could be pivotal to this aim. By examining the current successes and failures of mass transit payment structures in various cities, this paper will form a comprehensive summary of how the Interledger Protocol (ILP) might act as a vehicle for enabling both greater economic and physical mobility. It will synthesize the findings of case study examples that explore how interoperable digital payments have already been deployed in order to facilitate greater financial access, and what barriers those systems have faced. The qualitative and quantitative insights drawn from this analysis will be applied towards building directly on the summary understanding of the current state of mass transit payment systems in order to draw conclusions about how ILP can most effectively be used to expand access to transit on a global scale.
