The project aimed to develop a toolkit to accelerate closing the gender gap for women’s access to transaction accounts and then increase the usage of formal financial services. The toolkit will guide regulators and policymakers to create an enabling environment for the market and work together with Financial Service Providers (FSPs) to design appropriate financial products and services for women.

FinValue conceptualized and designed the toolkit based on an extensive literature review and stakeholder consultations with regulators, FSPs, thought leaders, and independent experts. The toolkit has been published by AFI and can be found here.
