| 9 | 1. Executive summary | narrative | Executive summary | The current Libya subsidy-disbursement model has reduced the role of formal card-based payment infrastructure without eliminating the downstream foreign-exchange market. Value still moves from formal allocation into resale, unofficial transfer behavior, and trade-payment activity that sits outside a fully visible digital environment. | |
| 10 | 1. Executive summary | narrative | Solution position | CashLine proposes a pragmatic Visa-enabled re-entry model. Rather than attempting to redesign the market around an idealized operating pattern, the solution formalizes the existing cycle through CashLine as the domestic orchestration and system-of-record layer. | |
| 11 | 1. Executive summary | narrative | Visa role | Visa is positioned where it fits naturally and credibly: issuing-linked beneficiary access and formal outbound payment rails. | |
| 12 | 2. Market context | 2.1 Market condition | narrative | Market condition | Libya's earlier subsidy models relied more directly on bank-issued cards for household access. Over time, exchange-rate volatility, liquidity behavior, and uncertainty in the wider market reduced the effectiveness of that channel. |
| 13 | 2. Market context | 2.2 Business problem | narrative | Business problem | The current model allows formally allocated value to migrate into informal FX capture and unofficial cross-border settlement patterns. That reduces regulatory transparency, weakens digital-payment participation, and limits Visa's relevance inside an important transaction ecosystem. |
| 14 | 2. Market context | 2.3 Market design implication | narrative | Design implication | Any workable solution must respect how the market actually behaves. The model succeeds by digitizing those realities, not by pretending they can be removed by policy language alone. |
| 15 | 3. Design logic | principle | Principle 1 | Preserve real economic behavior instead of forcing an artificial local operating model. | |
| 16 | 3. Design logic | principle | Principle 2 | Use CashLine as the orchestration, compliance, and system-of-record platform for all domestic workflow events. | |
| 17 | 3. Design logic | principle | Principle 3 | Keep Category A exchange companies as the official subsidy release point already accepted by the market. | |
| 18 | 3. Design logic | principle | Principle 4 | Digitize Category B as a visible participant in post-release FX activity and merchant trade-payment initiation. | |
| 19 | 3. Design logic | principle | Principle 5 | Position Visa at the beneficiary-access and outbound-rail layers where it creates the strongest strategic value. | |
| 20 | 3. Design logic | principle | Principle 6 | Maintain formal payment execution with the Acquirer Bank or other regulated entity. | |
| 21 | 3. Design logic | design_answer | Who owns domestic workflow control? | CashLine | |
| 22 | 3. Design logic | design_rationale | Why CashLine? | Creates one auditable platform for allocation, wallet activity, FX capture, trade workflow, reporting, and controls. | |
| 23 | 3. Design logic | design_answer | Who releases subsidy value? | Category A exchange companies | |
| 24 | 3. Design logic | design_rationale | Why Category A? | Preserves the role already legitimized in the market and avoids unnecessary structural disruption. | |
| 25 | 3. Design logic | design_answer | How does Visa re-enter the ecosystem? | Wallet-linked access credentials and outbound payment rails | |
| 26 | 3. Design logic | design_rationale | Why this Visa position? | Allows Visa to participate in high-value touchpoints without taking ownership of local subsidy administration. | |
| 27 | 3. Design logic | design_answer | What happens to Category B activity? | It is digitized and monitored rather than excluded | |
| 28 | 3. Design logic | design_rationale | Why capture Category B? | Converts an existing market leak into a controlled and commercially useful workflow. | |
| 29 | 3. Design logic | design_answer | Who performs regulated outbound execution? | Acquirer Bank or regulated financial entity | |
| 30 | 3. Design logic | design_rationale | Why regulated execution? | Keeps settlement and compliance responsibilities with a licensed institution. | |
| 31 | 4. Stakeholder architecture | stakeholder | Central Bank of Libya | Policy authority and oversight; owns subsidy framework and requires stronger digital visibility; gains better transparency, reporting discipline, and auditability. | |
| 32 | 4. Stakeholder architecture | stakeholder | Category A exchange companies | Official subsidy distributor; receive formal funding and release subsidy value to beneficiaries; gain operational digitization and clearer reporting. | |
| 33 | 4. Stakeholder architecture | stakeholder | Householders | Subsidy beneficiaries; receive and use subsidy-linked value; gain faster access, better visibility, and optional credential-linked usage. | |
| 34 | 4. Stakeholder architecture | stakeholder | Category B participants | Digitized FX and trade actors; buy post-release USD and initiate merchant-payment workflow; gain operational legitimacy, workflow efficiency, and formal rails. | |
| 35 | 4. Stakeholder architecture | stakeholder | Merchants | Trade-payment demand originators; supply invoices and supporting documents for commercial payments; gain structured submission, status visibility, and more reliable processing. | |
| 36 | 4. Stakeholder architecture | stakeholder | Acquirer Bank / regulated entity | Licensed execution institution; owns approval, origination, and settlement of formal outbound payments; gains formal payment volume and fee generation. | |
| 37 | 4. Stakeholder architecture | stakeholder | Visa | Access credential and rail partner; supports beneficiary access and regulated outbound merchant-payment rails; gains strategic re-entry into the subsidy-linked ecosystem. | |
| 38 | 5. Conceptual workflow | workflow_leg | Leg 1 | Central Bank of Libya formally funds Category A exchange companies, which release value into CashLine-managed beneficiary wallets. | |
| 39 | 5. Conceptual workflow | workflow_leg | Leg 2 | Beneficiaries may use or partially liquidate value, while post-release FX activity involving Category B is captured digitally rather than lost to informal visibility. | |
| 40 | 5. Conceptual workflow | workflow_leg | Leg 3 | Merchants submit trade-payment demand and supporting documents, and a regulated institution executes outbound payments through Visa-connected rails. | |
| 41 | 6. High-level platform interaction model | platform_position | CashLine platform | Subsidy orchestration, wallet and access management, FX and trade workflow capture, compliance, reporting, and audit. | |
| 42 | 6. High-level platform interaction model | platform_position | Visa layer | Placed at the access and rail layer, not as owner of local domestic workflow logic. | |
| 43 | 7. Value proposition for Visa | value_area | Re-entry model | A credible route back into the Libya subsidy-linked ecosystem without re-creating the old card-only model. | |
| 44 | 7. Value proposition for Visa | value_area | Issuing opportunity | A beneficiary-access model tied to wallet usage and credential activation rather than only bank-card distribution. | |
| 45 | 7. Value proposition for Visa | value_area | Cross-border payment relevance | A formal merchant-payment path executed by a regulated institution using Visa-connected outbound rails. | |
| 46 | 7. Value proposition for Visa | value_area | Strategic ecosystem position | Participation in both the consumer-access layer and the commercial outbound-payment layer. | |
