Survey results indicate thatfunding commitments continue to grow steadily, especially inSub-Saharan Africa (SSA). International funders areincreasingly targeting capacity building for financialservices providers (FSPs) and financial inclusion policy andregulation, and at this point, every funder supports thedevelopment of digital financial services (DFS).
