The Core Principles for Effective Deposit Insurance Systems issued by the International Association of Deposit Insurers (IADI) are the international standard for deposit insurance, and they set out the key components of effective deposit insurance systems.

As countries pursue more inclusive financial systems, deposit insurance is increasingly recognized as an important enabler of financial inclusion by protecting depositors who may be low-income, underserved, or disadvantaged which in turn encourages participation in the formal financial sector.

The recently revised Core Principles for Effective Deposit Insurance Systems reinforce this role by emphasizing the importance of ensuring that deposit protection frameworks are accessible, understandable, and responsive to the needs of diverse segments of society.

Against this backdrop, AFI and IADI will jointly convene a webinar to introduce the revised Core Principles and explore their implications for financial inclusion, financial stability, and the rapidly evolving DFS landscape in emerging and developing economies.
