| Summary: | The objective of this report is to
contribute to the continuing policy dialogue on financial
sector development. It is intended that the analysis and
recommendations from this report will contribute towards the
preparation and implementation of the National Development
Plan (NDP) and the implementation of the Financial Markets
Development Plan. The report suggests both policy and
institutional reforms to develop rural and agricultural
finance. This report has two parts: improving access to
financial services and improving the supply of term finance.
The first part focuses on three areas: expanding access
though the banking system; developing rural and agricultural
finance; and improving payments and remittance systems. The
second part focuses on three key areas: reforming the
pension system; developing the housing finance market; and
increasing the private financing of infrastructure. Each
chapter has the following structure: the first section
provides an overview of the chapter topic; the second
presents an analysis of the results of the survey (where
applicable) and interviews, and categorizes constraints; the
third section provides recommendations to address the constraints. |
