The system has been in operation since July 2013. It is an automated interbank settlement system, which settles payment obligations between participating banks either in real-time or on a delayed basis. The current system settles payments in South African rand (ZAR). There are considerations to include additional currencies in the system in the near future. The system is operated by the South African Reserve Bank (SARB), as appointed by the participating SADC central banks. Participants include central banks and financial institutions (i.e. banks and non-banks) in SADC that are authorised by the central bank in the country of origin to participate in that country’s settlement system. SADC-RTGS overview The SADC-RTGS is a project of the Protocol on Finance and Investment, which is focused on cross-border and intra-SADC transactions. It is a safe and efficient payment and settlement system, which allows banks in SADC member countries to send and receive payments directly from any of the other banks that have operating accounts in the SADC-RTGS.

    SADC Financial Systems: Structures, Policies and Markets October 2015 Disclaimer This report has been prepared from information produced by the SADC central banks and all efforts have been made to ensure the accuracy of the information contained herein. However, the Secretariat of the Committee of Central Bank Governors does not warrant the correctness of, and shall not be held responsible for any errors or omissions contained in the information received. This report has been prepared by the Secretariat of the Committee of Central Bank Governors with information made available as at 14 October 2015. Foreword Early in 1995, the Finance and Investment Sector of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) was created and the co-ordination of this new sector was allocated to South Africa. Within this sector, two independent but interrelated committees were established, namely the Committee of Treasury Officials to attend to fiscal issues, and the Committee of Central Bank Governors to attend to monetary policy issues. At its inaugural meeting on 24 November 1995, the Committee of Central Bank Governors in SADC (CCBG) identified the need for greater knowledge of the structures and policies of central banks as well as the financial markets of member states as a prerequisite for future co-operation in the area of monetary policy. To this end, a project was launched to establish an information base on central banks in the region. In July 1996, the Ministers of Finance of the twelve member states approved this initiative as an official project of SADC. A comprehensive questionnaire was developed, based on a similar survey done by the Bank for International Settlements on central banks in Eastern Europe.
