The Central Bank of Samoa (CBS) is mandated to formulate and implement Samoa’s monetary policy as part of the country's macroeconomic framework. Core CBS functions also include prudential and Anti-Money Laundering and Combatting the Financing of Terrorism (AML/ CFT) supervision and regulation of both financial and non-bank financial institutions in the country, with the aim to ensuring the soundness and stability of the financial system.

Samoa’s financial system includes over 30 licensed and supervised financial institutions, comprising of commercial banks, insurance companies & brokers, money transfer operators, a money changer, and public non-bank financial institutions.

Effective communication is essential for strengthening financial literacy across Samoa, helping households and businesses understand financial products, consumer protection measures, and the role of monetary policy in everyday life. To be fully impactful, CBS communications must be accessible and inclusive ensuring that messages are tailored to different literacy levels, languages, and vulnerable groups including persons with a disability so that all Samoans can participate confidently in the financial system. Levering new technology will be an important part of updating the current communications strategy.
