Guideline Note on Sex-Disaggregated Data Report Templates

Sex-disaggregated data collection provides an opportunity for finetuning policy, reforming legal and regulatory frameworks, and creates space for innovation to promote greater women’s financial inclusion.

It also promotes the development of financial infrastructure, refining and strengthening financial consumer protection regulation and financial education, and financial literacy programs for women.

The objective of this Guideline Note is to provide guidance to regulated financial institutions - licensed and regulated by the central bank or by any other financial regulatory and supervisory institution – related to the different elements needed to complete the periodic financial data reporting returns or reporting templates using a sex-disaggregated data approach.
