To own, possess, operate, manage or control infrastructure for the provision of payment services — Kenya

The Kenya category mapped to payment switching / interoperability infrastructure. Regulator: Central Bank of Kenya. The CBK PSP Directory prints no statutory category labels; rows are identified by this exact authorized-services wording (same report-the-record pattern as the Phase-1 e-money match). Wording is infrastructure-only, hence single-mapped to SWITCHING per the dual-map rule. Mapping human-reviewed and approved in the Phase-2 plan, 2026-07-02 (dual-map rule: maps_to follows the statutory definition; dual only where the definition itself spans both activities).
