Abstract

Financial inclusion has been increasingly recognized as an important tool for alleviating poverty, improving household welfare, and promoting business activities. Yet, nearly 40 % of the adults (15 years and above) in the world do not have an account in a financial institution (World Bank 2015). In Sri Lanka, currently supports a large number of financial institutions (FIs), both formal and semiformal, providing a range of different financial services such as loans, savings, leasing and finance, and pawning facilities to its population. There is also evidence of high access to and use of financial services across income groups.
