Opérateur de système de paiement monétique agréé — DR Congo
The DR Congo category mapped to payment switching.
Regulator: Banque Centrale du Congo.
Operator of a BCC-licensed monetic payment system / participant in the Switch Monétique National, under Instruction n° 58 relative à l'interopérabilité des systèmes de paiement monétique et à la participation au switch monétique national (04 sept 2024, in force ≈ 04 mars 2025), which hangs off the payments law Loi n° 18/019 and Loi n° 22/069 art. 168. NO live public register of agréé monetic-system operators has been located on bcc.cd (the cartographie's « Systèmes gérés par les tiers » page lists the agréé-system classes without links), so this category carries no D3 fact today — a register_unavailable state, reported with its mandate context (the report-the-unavailability pattern). I-58 art. 27 states the BCC operates the Switch itself pending creation of the GMIC. Modelled as a distinct SWITCHING category so a « who can operate a payment switch in DR Congo » answer returns the honest register state rather than silence.
