DISCLAIMER
The Financial Inclusion Global Initiative (FIGI) is a three-year program implemented in
partnership by the World Bank Group (WBG), the Committee on Payments and Market
Infrastructures (CPMI), and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) funded by
the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) to support and accelerate the implementa-
tion of country-led reform actions to meet national financial inclusion targets, and ulti-
mately the global 'Universal Financial Access 2020' goal. FIGI funds national implemen-
tations in three countries-China, Egypt and Mexico; supports working groups to tackle
three sets of outstanding challenges for reaching universal financial access: (1) the Elec-
tronic Payment Acceptance Working Group (led by the WBG), (2) The Digital ID for
Financial Services Working Group (led by the WBG), and (3) The Security, Infrastructure
and Trust Working Group (led by the ITU); and hosts three annual symposia to gather
national authorities, the private sector, and the engaged public on relevant topics and to
share emerging insights from the working groups and country programs.
