Thierry Uy Tiv (Innovation and Customers) and Robin Lavrilloux (Head of the Financing Team) took part in the recording of a podcast in Thailand dedicated to financial inclusion, organized by the Macroeconomic Policy Bureau, the Fiscal Policy Journal and the KM Taskforce. The event highlighted the transformation of communities through inclusive finance.

The discussions enabled the challenges and opportunities related to access to financial services in regions marked by strong socio-economic inequalities to be addressed. The experts shared their experiences and discussed innovative strategies to promote financial inclusion, such as the use of fintechs and tax incentive policies. They also highlighted the importance of local initiatives that enable disadvantaged populations to have easier access to banking services and microfinance solutions, as is the case for women who are often excluded from financial services.

They also emphasized the crucial role of responsible investment in creating a more inclusive and sustainable financial ecosystem. The experience of other countries was cited to illustrate how successful financial inclusion models have transformed the living conditions of many communities around the world.
