The vision of FILAC is to promote inclusive and sustainable growth and poverty reduction through sustainable financial inclusion policies. AFI has been working in LAC since 2009, collaborating with financial regulators across the region. In that time, AFI has provided 16 grants to LAC members to promote financial inclusion. In 2011 AFI hosted the Global Policy Forum in Riviera Maya, Mexico, a flagship event that launched the Maya Declaration. AFI currently has 25 member institutions from the region that participate actively in the AFI network. To provide better services and meet the needs of these members, AFI has set up a regional coordination office.
