IMF renews concern for inclusion
Resolving unequal access to finance "is crucial to delivering on the 2025 objective," IMF managing director Christine Lagarde told the W-20 Summit in Ankara overnight."In emerging and developing countries, 70 percent of female-owned small and medium-sized enterprises are either unserved or under-served by financial institutions," Lagarde said."Increasing financial inclusion for women is an issue that I plan to emphasize at the UN Summit on the Post-2015 Development Agenda later this month," she said.
