In Kenya for example, compared to men, women still have lower access to formal prudentially regulated services such as banks – 35 percent for women compared to 50 percent for men. This case study features Jennifer Riria, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Kenya Women Holding Group (KWH) and her work in reducing that gender gap in financial inclusion. | | Copyright Holder | African Community of Practice (AfCoP) | | Copyright URL | http://www.acbf-pact.org | | Filesize | 465991 MB | | File Format | PDF | | [ View / download original document ] |
