Why the name “Kiribas”

The site is called Kiribas because it reflects the local pronunciation of Kiribati—the same name, spoken as it is commonly pronounced in the Gilbertese language. For clarity and continuity, kiribas.org is used as the public portal name, while the authority remains formally identified as Kiribati International Financial Authority (KIFA).
