Nigeria’s National Strategy Leveraging Agent Networks for Women’s Financial Inclusion

This document provides ways to optimize agent networks to increase women’s financial inclusion in Nigeria, based on their strategy to close the gender gap. The strategy seeks to:

  • To double the number of female financial services agents between 2022 and 2024.
  • To increase the ratio of female to male financial services agents from 15:85 to 35:65 by 2024.
  • To promote the innovation and deployment of at least 10 gender-centric financial products or interventions that actively leverage agent networks.
  • To ensure that stakeholders pursue geographically tailored solutions.
