Women Financial Inclusion in Ethiopia

This infographic explores the persistent gender gap in Ethiopia’s financial inclusion landscape. Despite progress in digital finance, most Ethiopian women remain excluded — 86% lack a mobile money account and 78% have no digital financial service (DFS) account. These gaps limit women’s participation in savings, credit, and economic growth opportunities. The visual highlights how expanding women’s access to digital finance could lift 700,000 people out of poverty and add USD 5.3 billion to the country’s GDP, underscoring that gender-inclusive finance is not only a matter of equity but also a driver of national prosperity.
