The MOF announces the launch of E-Guarantee service in collaboration with the Arab Bank for Investment & Foreign Trade (Al Masraf) within the efforts exerted by both parties to apply the latest technologies in the path of conversion towards Smart Services.

In its comment on the launch of the new service, the MOF stressed its attempts to improve the cash flows management and save more time and effort. That step comes within the Ministry’s diligence to continue its ongoing conversion to smart services and apply innovative solutions in the field of electronic payment and collection of service fees. This process would increase the efficiency and effectiveness of financial systems and manage cash flows for the Federal Government developing up to the best practices in the industry. The MOF will continue its efforts to develop its payment systems to become the best options for the payment of Governmental Services fees all over the country.
