Forum theme: Financial Inclusion – Achieving Asia’s Potential

Asia Microfinance Forum’s are practitioner-focused events, and as such encourages submissions from all microfinance stakeholders on the issue of financial inclusion. A survey of BWTP Network member organisations determined a range of issues of great importance when discussing financial inclusion. These issues address some of the key limitation in achieving financial inclusion, such as institutional capacity, diversification of products and services, geography, gender, socio-economic or cultural exclusion, financial literacy, limitation of income-generating activities, lack of data and policy and regulation.

Deadline for all submissions is: 30th June 2010
