However, the gender gap in access and usage of financial services remains pervasive across all the countries in South Asia. Patriarchal societies, low involvement of women in decision making, low empowerment of women, no voice in the family matters are some of the factors influencing women's financial access in the region. Although literature has developed on access to financial services in general, there is not much academic work available on access to digital financial services for women. Gender Bias and Digital Financial Services in South Asia: Obstacles and Opportunities on the Road to Equal Access examines access to financial services to women in general in South Asia and specifically their access to digital financial services. 410 0$aEmerald points. 606 $aDiscrimination in financial services$zSouth Asia 606 $aSex discrimination$zSouth Asia 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xIndustries$xFinancial Services$2bisacsh 606 $aBanking$2bicssc 615 0$aDiscrimination in financial services 615 0$aSex discrimination 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xIndustries$xFinancial Services. 615 7$aBanking. 676 $a330.95005 700 $aArora$b Rashmi U.$01805317 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910971192403321 996 $aGender bias and digital financial services in South Asia$94353826 997 $aUNINA
