KEY OBJECTIVES

EFInA will focus on three distinct but mutually reinforcing sets of activities:

• Improving the level of credible market information available to regulators and the private sector,    by initiating an ambitious research agenda, firstly targeting the nearly vacant space of demand-side    data through a large sample Access to Finance in Nigeria Survey based on the FinScope methodology.

• Building the capacity of regulators and financial services industry players as well as engaging in    policy related advocacy that would facilitate the development of a broader and more balanced    financial sector strategy.

• Establishing and operating an Innovation Fund to stimulate innovation in financial services. The    Innovation Fund will provide a mechanism for broadening access by, among others, women’s  groups    and very poor people.
