The EU is driving the development of a digital identity wallet, which aims to give EU citizens better control over their personal data. By collecting digital identities and verifiable information securely in a digital wallet, the EU aims to facilitate cross-border interaction. The identity wallet can be used to store and share various digital documents such as driver's licenses, diplomas, and health information. In Sweden, Digg, or the Agency For Digital Government, which is equivalent to the Digital and Population Data Services Agency of Finland, has been tasked with developing the identity wallet and managing the rules and requirements that define how private identity wallets are approved and monitored. Kivra sees a future where the development of digital mail services and the identity wallet go hand in hand. To prepare for this development, Kivra has made a business transaction to acquire Truid, which means that Truid's product and technology team will become part of Kivra.
