An Ecosystem for Responsible Finance: Lessons From the International Conference on Responsible and Inclusive Finance

This report, published by The SEEP Network, provides lessons learned from The International Conference on Responsible and Inclusive Finance (ICRIF). The conference was hosted by the Association of Microfinance Institutions in Rwanda (AMIR) and aimed to give conference participants an opportunity to learn and share strategies, successes, and challenges concerning financial inclusion in not only Rwanda but also within their own countries and contexts. The conference also provided a forum to discuss best responsible finance practices, with an emphasis on client protection and consumer education, thus addressing topics in the three mutually reinforcing pillars of responsible finance.
