Organized by Bank of Russia (CBR) and the Alliance for Financial Inclusion (AFI), the 2018 Global Policy Forum (GPF) is themed, “Innovation. Inclusion. Impact.” — striving to provide a platform to showcase the latest innovations in technology, progress made in financial inclusion and its impact in paving the way for greater financial access, particularly for the rural poor and women. 2018 marks this year’s GPF as the 10th edition, making it special and different from its predecessors. In addition, 2018 also marks another milestone in AFI’s history so far — its 10th anniversary — celebrating a decade of advancing financial inclusion. View the 2018 GPF report for the full story.
