Cambodia, with a population of around 17.35 million people, has a GDP of approximately 49.80 billion making it the 95th largest economy in the world. The official currency of Cambodia is the Cambodian Riel (KHR)
The economy's main drivers are garment and footwear manufacturing, tourism, and construction. It is a member of ASEAN and benefits from preferential trade access to the EU and the US, with China as its largest investor and partner.

The financial landscape in Cambodia is heavily influenced by ABA Mobile, a dominant banking app that has driven digital payment adoption through its seamless QR code payments (KHQR), transfers, and bill payment features. Cash, in both the local Riel and the US Dollar, remains prevalent, with US dollars often used for larger purchases and Riel for smaller transactions and change. Bakong, a central bank-sponsored digital wallet and transfer system, also plays a key role by connecting various financial institutions.
