Empowering Stability: Unveiling the Link between Financial Inclusion and Bank Resilience: A Comprehensive Review

Samuel Yeboah

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: This systematic review examines the link between financial inclusion (FI) and bank stability (BS). FI, defined as access to and usage of formal financial services by individuals and businesses, has gained significant attention as a policy goal in many countries. BS, on the other hand, is a critical aspect of financial system resilience and plays a key role in promoting economic growth and stability. The review synthesizes the existing literature to understand the potential linkages, mechanisms, and empirical evidence regarding the link between FI and BS. The findings highlight the complex nature of this link, with both positive and negative implications for BS arising from increased FI. The review concludes with policy implications and directions for future research.
