The Grameen Crédit Agricole Foundation shares the second issue of its «News from the Field» series, highlighting essential perspectives on women's financial inclusion, shared by female leaders from our partner institutions.
Despite progress made, 742 million women remain financially excluded worldwide, with a credit gap of $320 billion for women-led SMEs. Yet, financial institutions could generate approximately $700 billion in annual revenue by serving women equitably.
During the 2025 African Financial Inclusion Week in Nairobi, we organized a roundtable with remarkable women leaders from our partner institutions, who emphasized the importance of going beyond access, adopting inclusive approaches, leveraging digital transformation, and promoting internal transformation of microfinance institutions.
As part of our LIFT 2028 strategic plan, the Foundation aims to establish itself as an expert in women's financial inclusion through local partnerships and customized financial and non-financial services.
