Facilitating Commercial Growth Through Financial Inclusion

According to The World Bank, financial inclusion is a key enabler to reducing poverty and boosting prosperity. Financial inclusion means that individuals and businesses have access to useful and affordable financial products and services that meet their needs – transactions, payments, savings, credit and insurance – delivered in a responsible and sustainable way

However, technology is changing the landscape of the financial sector, increasing access to financial services in profound ways, and creating new opportunities for digital financial services to accelerate and enhance financial inclusion, amid social distancing and containment measures. At the same time, the risks emerging prior to COVID-19, as digital financial services developed, are becoming even more relevant.

The financial services sector, through its products and services offerings, not only improves the accessibility of capital formation but also encourages the innovation, efficiency and investment that leads to output growth. Across Africa, we need to take a strategic approach to develop financial inclusion strategies that will bring together financial regulators, founders and relevant stakeholders to increase the pace and impact of reforms that will facilitate commercial growth.

Join Ayobami Olajide, Onyeka Nwobu, Benjamin Dada and Olayinka Oke at a round table as they discuss how facilitating commercial growth can be made possible through financial inclusion.

About Techuncode 

Techuncode, formerly AskIfa, is an independent online media that has come to solve the negative perception of Africans and Technology.

All over the world, it is believed that Africans consume technology rather than invent. It is thought that most world-leading software and hardware solutions are primarily from other continents of the world. But this may be true, or maybe not true.

How can we change this narrative? Is there a gap in communicating our homemade technology innovations? Are there possibilities to achieve in Africa for Africans with Technology through a simplified and relatable technology platform?

We have taken the mantle to light up the path leading to a technological revolution for a continent hungry for possibilities.

So we have decided to see technology through the lens of SIMPLICITY. Through our content, media, and events, we will communicate everything about technology in such a SIMPLIFIED, interesting, fun, and relatable way that it will inspire world-renowned technological innovative solutions right from Africa!
