It is not surprising that NFIS have gained traction so quickly, since the logic appears simple: greater financial inclusion promises more inclusive growth and development, while national strategies have the potential to accelerate financial inclusion.
This report covers NFIS practice in relation to two different, but essentially interlinked phases of the strategy process: formulation and implementation (which also includes progress monitoring and evaluation).
The objective of the report is to provide an overview of the practices that different countries have adopted and highlight recent developments. Data and information have been drawn from a multitude of sources, including the formal national financial inclusion strategies of AFI members, and the AFI FISPLG.
