Short Abstract

This paper is a study focusing on financial inclusion using the recently released Global Findex data set from the World Bank.  While there is extensive literature focused on financial inclusion from a nation-by-nation lens, there is a lack of cross-country analysis. This paper intends to fill this gap. Furthermore, this paper provides evidence that financial inclusion should be addressed in different manners depending on the developed status of an economy. Through empirical models this study finds macro-economic variables to be significant in predicting a banked population. Most importantly, this paper contributes to the existing literature by suggesting socio-economic factors as being most important with regards to highly banked populations.
