This presented material describes the importance of National Strategy for financial inclusion in terms of poverty reduction and economic growth. The National Strategy is needed because it builds on the efforts of individual Ministries to create greater synergy and reap the benefit of coordination. It has been developed close cooperation with Bank Indonesia and Government Ministries.
