The government has finalized the second National Financial Inclusion Strategy, aimed at increasing access to financial services.
The strategy due for launch on Thursday will cover the period 2023 to 2028, succeeding the first one that was launched in 2017.
According to Mackay Aomu, Director, of the National Payment Systems Department at BoU, major achievements were met by the previous strategy, though they were affected by the outbreak of COVID-19, as well as budget constraints and inadequate accountability.
