Recruiting a Professional Intern to Participate in the Finscope 2024 Data Analysis and Coaching

Introduction

About Access to Finance Rwanda (AFR)

Access to Finance Rwanda (AFR) is a Rwandan not-for-profit company established in 2010 to promote financial inclusion and financial sector development. AFR is currently funded by Sweden, Jersey Overseas Aid, and the MasterCard Foundation.

Access to Finance Rwanda is part of the broader Financial Sector Deepening (FSD) in Africa that seeks to create a transformative impact on the ending of poverty by supporting efforts to improve financial inclusion and financial sector development by helping financial institutions and markets drive more inclusive and sustainable economic growth.

AFR supports the removal of systemic barriers that hinder access to financial services by low-income people, particularly the rural poor, women, youth, and MSMEs. AFR supports the development and provision of financial services including savings, credit, insurance, investment, payments, and remittances.

AFR is guided by the Market System Development (MSD) approach recognizing that efforts to increase financial inclusion and financial sector development must be market-led, profitable, and sustainable.

Overview of Finscope 2024

It is widely accepted that financial inclusion plays an important role in promoting faster, broad-based economic growth and poverty reduction. In recognizing the importance of supporting financial inclusion, the Government of Rwanda (GoR) has developed the Financial Sector Development Strategy (FSDS, 2018-2024) aimed at increasing financial inclusion and therefore improving the livelihoods of people in Rwanda.

The goal is to increase access to, and use of, appropriate and affordable financial services that meet the needs of adult people in Rwanda, and by specifically ensuring that poor and underserved segments become more enabled to build their financial security, manage shocks and invest in business opportunities.

Over the past 16 years, Rwanda has carried out 4 Finscope surveys^[1] with respective series of thematic reports. In fact, since the first Finscope survey in 2008, the focus has been on producing demand side information on the determinant of financial in inclusion in Rwanda (e.g., demographics landscape and insights into people’s financial lives) as well as providing dimensions of financial inclusion and the overall country and cross-country contextual review that allows comparisons.

The series of Finscope surveys data produced on four-year intervals have extensively been used to inform the design of financial sector development strategies and interventions. More specifically, major Government of Rwanda’s mid-term strategies such as the National Strategy for Transformation (NST1) and the Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning (MINECOFIN)’s FSDS used Finscope survey data to design national and sector-level interventions for consolidating and promoting financial inclusion. In addition, Finscope survey data have also been instrumental in informing sector-specific financial inclusion targets for specific population segments such as youth, women, persons with disabilities, smallholder farmers, etc.

The Finscope survey has therefore proven to be one of the most important sources that generate evidence for promoting financial inclusion, financial sector development, and economic empowerment in Rwanda.
