.@womensworldbnkg found financial providers with 50%+ women clients get higher returns. Women excel in loan repayments, consistent saving, and boast higher credit scores. But we're missing gender-specific data.

Women's #FinancialInclusion is an accelerator of #SustainableDevelopment for all. Take India for example, where gender-intentional digital public infrastructure has advanced their society and the economy.
Thank you @amitabhk87 for your partnership on this @AmerBanker piece!
Amitabh Kant@amitabhk87
India leads the way in financial inclusion for women ! India's gender-intentional #DPI has been a game-changer. Initiatives like Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana have accelerated women's financial inclusion, achieving 40 years of development progress in less than a decade. It has made women financially independent and transformed their lives. Financial inclusion is key to empowering underserved populations, especially women.
