About the NSFI: Overview For the Philippine government, financial inclusion is an enduring vision – financial inclusion that supports inclusive growth, one that promotes shared economic development, upholds social cohesion and reduces income inequality. This is explicit in the Philippine Development Plan. Indeed, inclusive growth is the ultimate goal. This is the reason why many agencies are engaged in development activities.
With the NSFI, we focus on achieving financial inclusion that promotes inclusive growth, consolidate our efforts to avoid overlaps, and together set priorities to maximize use of our resources. The NSFI covers three fundamental points: (1) Why we are pursuing financial inclusion, (2) Who we are targeting to include, and (3) What we should do to translate the vision into reality.
