Join e-MFP members members SPTF & Grameen Foundation on 27th January in this English/Spanish webinar to learn about “Barriers, Bias & Banking: Balancing needs & risks related to gender and unintended consequences of financial services".

They will discuss how some things are simply fundamental for serving women better with financial services. To begin, a financial services provider (FSP) should understand its own biases that affect female staff. Additionally, an FSP should understand the tradeoffs that female clients make when pursuing economic opportunities, and the types of negative shocks they commonly face. With this knowledge, the FSP can improve its practices and achieve better outcomes for women. During the webinar, the SPTF will share recent changes to the Universal Standards that have incorporated a stronger gender lens. Grameen Foundation will share a toolkit that helps FSPs implement good practices in promoting women's economic empowerment while avoiding unintended negative consequences such as child labor or gender-based violence.
