The new collaboration aims to tackle inequality in accessing financial services and, as part of the agreement, WEF will provide a series of insights and best practices to follow, as well as develop policies to boost financial inclusion.

The partnership reflects a trend of public-private alliances and multi-stakeholder collaboration.
