The Task Force held a well-attended Sherpa Meeting in the offices of Ant Group in Washington DC, alongside the World Bank/IMF Fall Meetings. The task for the sherpas was to debate key recommendation areas to be included in the final report. In a series of working groups, they discussed the key opportunities for harnessing digitalisation to finance the SDGs as well as the digital foundations that underpin sustainable digitalisation of finance, from digital infrastructure and connectivity to data access. The need for governance innovations also emerged as a key enabler for sustainable digital financing ecosystems.
