• Sommario/riassunto: This volume presents an academic discussion of SDG sub-goal 8.10, which involves increasing financial inclusion via enhancing access to banking, insurance, and other financial services. It examines the challenges that prevent many from accessing financial services and analyses strategies governments, financial institutions, and NGOs can use to promote broader financial inclusion. It also explores economic, sociological, financial, and other social sciences/business perspectives on SDG 8.10 and its key indicators. Featuring global and regional topics and country studies, this volume provides an interdisciplinary approach to financial inclusion that informs, inspires, and catalyzes action for a more inclusive and sustainable global economy.
