The Role Regulators Play in Closing the Financial Inclusion Gender Gap: A Case Study of Pakistan

Since 2008, Pakistan has made significant strides in increasing women’s financial inclusion, but the fact remains that more than three out of five Pakistani women are still unbanked.

These factors directly impact women’s access and use of financial services and will be essential to address to further close financial inclusion gender gaps.
