The Alliance for Financial Inclusion (AFI) stands at the forefront as the world’s preeminent independent organization dedicated to financial inclusion policy and regulation. Originating from a visionary collaboration of the central banks of the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, Kenya, and Mexico, AFI drives evidence-based policies in FinTech, consumer protection, microfinance, gender-inclusive finance, and more for financial inclusion.

With a robust network of over 85 member institutions spanning 76 countries, AFI orchestrates its flagship annual event—the Global Policy Forum (GPF). This esteemed gathering serves as a comprehensive platform for financial organizations and regulatory institutions to exchange knowledge and experiences, ultimately contributing to the development and enhancement of national financial inclusion strategies and policies.

In line with this year’s GPF theme, “Stability, Sustainability, and Inclusivity for Shared Prosperity,” AFI made a strategic choice to implement ConveneAGM during its in-person forum and 8th annual general meeting in the Philippines. This addition enhanced collaboration, streamlined registration, and ensured secure and credible voting, contributing to the event’s success.

No Fuss, No Hassle Event Registration

Throughout the four-day forum, AFI effectively streamlined its registration process by leveraging ConveneAGM. With attendees hailing from various corners of the country and the world, manually registering each participant could have posed a significant challenge. ConveneAGM emerged as a savior by allowing attendees to conveniently register using their mobile devices.

Specifically, the annual general meeting witnessed a seamless registration experience for member representatives. By simply logging in via the ConveneAGM app and verifying their voting rights, attendees were able to complete the registration process with ease. This streamlined approach ensured that the event progressed without a hitch, with no delays attributable to the registration process.

Modernized Voting — Seamless, Secure, and Touch-Free

The event commenced with the first two days dedicated to the AFI Annual General Meeting, Working Group sessions, and Regional Meetings. During AFI’s 8th annual general meeting, ConveneAGM was a crucial tool in ensuring a smooth and efficient voting process for member representatives.

Employing the contactless voting feature of ConveneAGM, they were able to effortlessly cast their votes using their mobile devices. This modern approach to voting not only streamlined the process but also enhanced accessibility and convenience.

Another standout feature of ConveneAGM is its ability to instantly tabulate the votes and display the results to attendees. This real-time transparency not only added credibility but also underscored accountability in the decision-making process.

In addition to its user-friendly interface, ConveneAGM also prioritized data security throughout the registration and voting process for the AFI event. The platform ensured the utmost protection of user data by implementing robust security measures, including secure authentication methods. Furthermore, by partnering with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and adhering to various security standards, ConveneAGM guarantees the safe storage of information in secure databases.
