Purpose: Africa faces significant challenges in financial literacy, with only 27% of adults in Sub-Saharan Africa possessing basic financial knowledge. This deficiency has contributed to economic inequalities, poor financial decision-making, and limited access to financial services. Rural populations, women, and marginalized communities remain disproportionately affected. Despite technological advancements, such as mobile banking, the continent continues to grapple with low literacy levels necessary for effective financial inclusion. Addressing these issues requires context-specific educationa

The article presents the results of the analysis of the approaches to ensuring financial literacy and financial inclusion in the 2020s and the tools for its implementation in the five “old” BRICS countries. The focus of the efforts of such states as Brazil, China, and India on financial inclusion has been determined, while for the Republic of South Africa the basic financial skills of the population for the functioning of financial markets and the capital market are primary, and Russia, in turn, declares its goal is not only to instill the skills of correct and reasonable financial behavior, b

This article empirically investigates the quantitative relationship between financial inclusion and inclusive growth in the East Africa Region. The study employs Driscoll and Kraal's augmented fixed effects estimation technique to analyze data from 2011 to 2021 for five Eastern African Countries. The results show that inclusive growth is positively impacted by financial inclusion. In terms of usage of financial services by gender, on average, a percentage increase in female account ownership and male account ownership will lead to a 0.025% and 0.024% increase in inclusive growth, respectively.

Financial literacy is a critical factor that significantly impacts the success and achievement of small and medium enterprises' (SMEs) objectives. Unfortunately, many SMEs struggle with inadequate financial literacy, which hinders their ability to make informed decisions, manage resources effectively and drive growth. This knowledge gap can lead to poor financial planning, inefficient resource allocation and a lack of resilience, ultimately threatening the long-term sustainability of these businesses. By prioritising financial literacy, SMEs can enhance their capacity to develop realistic fina
