The Governor of the Central Bank of Oman, Taher bin Salem Al-Amri, said that the bank is developing its own digital currency, and intends to start open banking services.

According to Arabiya Net, Al-Omari affirmed that the bank is committed to supporting innovation and modernizing the financial sector, in line with ensuring financial stability.

The bank revealed last October a tender to study the issuance of the Sultanate's digital currency.
