FINANCIAL INCLUSION

Financial inclusion is the delivery of financial services at affordable costs to vast sections of disadvantaged and low income groups. It is often argued that as banking services are in the nature of public good, it is essential that banking and payment services be made available to the entire population without discrimination. Financial inclusion has become a common objective for many central banks in developing countries.
