Banking and Microfinance Association Leaders Speak at Forum on Financial Literacy and Responsible Credit Use

On the morning of March 26, 2025, Rath Sophoan, Chairman of the Association of Banks in Cambodia, and Dit Nita, Chairwoman of the Board of Directors of the Cambodian Microfinance Association, participated as speakers in a discussion between journalists and financial sector experts on “The Role of Media in Mainstreaming Financial Literacy and Responsible Borrowing.” The event was organized by Credit Bureau Cambodia and the Cambodian Journalists Club.

The purpose of the forum was to give journalists, particularly those covering economic affairs, an opportunity to learn about the role of Cambodia’s credit information-sharing system in promoting stability in the financial sector and the credit market; credit market trends and consumer behavior; and the state of credit in Cambodia in 2024.

Through the discussion, journalists gained a clearer understanding of Cambodia’s credit information-sharing system and credit market trends, as well as cooperation between the media and financial sectors to bridge the gap between them, promote financial inclusion, and encourage responsible credit use.
