FinEquity is delighted to announce the comprehensive revitalization of our online Resource Library, featuring upgraded filtering tools and additional resources to provide smooth and efficient access to your trusted source on women’s financial inclusion.  

Central to the refreshed online hub is the FinEquity Knowledge Guide Series, a curated directory of practical resources – case studies, tools, publications, and more – for advancing women’s financial inclusion. Developed with member input and the FinEquity community’s needs in mind, the inaugural editions of the series focus on three key themes: Promoting gender diversity and leadership in the financial services sector; Utilizing gender data and analysis tools, and; Incorporating gender-intelligent product design. 

These resource guides have been produced in collaboration with USAID.
