The year 2021 has seen the world adjusting to new norms. AFI continued to evolve, exploring new ways of closely engaging with its member institutions.

“Working groups have contributed significantly to AFI with over 800 policy changes, leading to the financial inclusion of over 630 million people globally through policy guidance, peer learning, and knowledge generation” says AFI Executive Director Dr. Alfred Hannig.

2022 is a pivotal year to transition to a full recovery after the COVID-19 pandemic and to continue building up the resilience of our member institutions. All the working groups and regional initiatives will become instrumental in finding optimum ways to recover policy tools and mechanisms for all the countries in the network.
