Understanding Research and Development in Financial Inclusion

Every activity needs further improvement to grow its resourcefulness and productivity. In Kenya, the number of people with formal banking knowledge is growing, but their involvement is not at par. In understanding these scenarios, we can note their reservations, and tailor-make products that will suite their circumstances. The goal is financial inclusion across the economy.

The bug is not only among our parents, but also in young people. Most of them believe that they lose control over their money once it hits the bank account. Furthermore, they have to maintain a certain base minimum to gain a good amount in interest. With the meagre amount they get, they have nowhere to take it to grow their dividends.

Picturing all these scenarios, Chama Systems seeks to build capacity, spread knowledge and influence discussions on financial inclusion. We have a special tool that guides this decision, and comprehensive materials to further this course. In partnership with financial and research institutions, we hope to influence more people into saving progressively into the future.
