The components of access and usage have been appropriately implemented in terms of physical aspects and prices that are easily accessible to customers. These two components have an impact on increasing customer Islamic financial literacy. In the quality component, product variations are expected to fulfill the different business needs of customers. Meanwhile, financing has not significantly impacted fulfilling the welfare component’s capital needs  because the nominal value is too small.

Meskipun sektor UMKM telah menjadi fondasi yang cukup sentral bagi perekonomian, keterbatasan permodalan masih menjadi masalah klasik UMKM. Hal ini mendorong pemerintah untuk mengeluarkan Strategi Nasional Keuangan Inklusif yang bertujuan untuk memberikan layanan keuangan yang dapat diakses seluruh lapisan masyarakat. Indikator keuangan inklusif yang terdiri dari akses, penggunaan dan kualitas diterapkan untuk mewujudkan pemberdayaan UMKM melalui pembiayaan dan pendampingan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif melalui pengumpulan data wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa komponen keuangan inklusif telah diimplementasikan namun masih berpotensi untuk dimaksimalkan. Komponen akses dan penggunaan sudah terlaksana dengan baik dilihat dari segi fisik dan harga yang mudah dijangkau nasabah. Kedua komponen tersebut berdampak pada peningkatan literasi keuangan syariah nasabah. Pada komponen kualitas, variasi produk diharapkan dapat memenuhi kebutuhan modal nasabah yang berbeda. Sedangkan untuk komponen kesejahteraan, pembiayaan belum memberikan pengaruh signifikan untuk memenuhi kebutuhan permodalan karena nilai nominal yang terlalu kecil. Selain itu, program pendampingan usaha (HALMI) memiliki dampak yang lebih signifikan terhadap peningkatan usaha dan spiritual pelanggan.</p>

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of microfinance on financial inclusion and business growth in Igembe South District Kenya.Methodology: Descriptive research was used in discovering the research objectives. The research targeted the micro, small and medium sized businesses operating in Maua town (Igembe south District), 2181 of which were registered and licensed. A sample of 280 businesses (12.84% of the population) participated in the study.Results: This study revealed that microfinance institutions played a major role in improving financial inclusion among the small business owners who previous research has shown that they have been traditionally excluded from the formal banking systems. 78% of the respondents had access to the micro finance services while 60% had active microcredit in the preceding 12 months. It was clear that the microfinance institutions were cultivating the culture of saving among the micro entrepreneurs. However, most of the new businesses specifically those less than one year of age minimally benefitted from the micro finance services. It was also noted that default risk among the small businesses remains to be a challenge that micro credit lenders have to overcome for continued services provision. Working capital requirement was the leading reason for borrowing from micro finance institutions by the businesses.Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: The study found that there was a good complementation between the existing micro finance institutions and the public entrepreneurial programs initiated by the government of Kenya such as Youth Entrepreneurs Development Fund, Women Enterprise Fund, Uwezo Fund and other County governments initiatives. The study recommended that the microfinance institutions should also be included in the distribution channel of these public funds for stronger linkage with the target groups. The MFIs should also utilize Credit Reference Bureau services to reduce the problem of default.

The Impact

Financial inclusion assures easy access to financial services by enabling the disadvantaged and vulnerable sections of the society to actively contribute to development and protect themselves against socio-economic shocks. Nigeria has a sizeable rural poor population with limited access to conventional financial institutions or services. This study investigated the impact of financial inclusion on the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) performance in Nigeria. The survey research design method was used, involving the use of questionnaires, in collecting data from respondents. Data were analyzed using the Pearson Chi-square technique. The results show that, whereas financial inclusion positively and significantly impacts the operations and growth of MSMEs, distance to financial services access points and infrastructural deficiency challenged fast and effective access to financial services by MSMEs in Nigeria. The study recommends that deliberate efforts should be made to spread access points to more rural areas and improve infrastructure to promote FI. This should include a policy roadmap for expanding financial services access points to unbanked and underserved areas using the financial services geospatial map. Furthermore, the digitizing of payments across the country should be prioritized to include enhanced ICT/E-banking tools and a consumer protection framework.

The study investigated the direct effects of financial literacy (knowledge, skills, and attitudes) on financial preparedness for retirement and the moderating effect of age among the small and medium enterprises in Uganda. Primary data was collected from a sample of n = 380 selected from the SME workforce. Descriptive analysis was run on SPSS, while validity and reliability of the measurement items yielded satisfactory composite reliability scores and average variance explained (AVE) scores for all items. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to test the hypotheses and multi-group analysis conducted to test for the moderating effect of age on the relationship between financial literacy and retirement preparedness. The results revealed that knowledge and skills were significant predictors of retirement preparedness. However, ‘attitude' was not a significant predictor, and age had no moderating effect on the relationship between the study variables. These findings present practical implications for policymakers and financial educators in a developing country context.

Financial inclusion is often considered as an access to financial resources for the wide public and small and medium-sized businesses, although it is a much broader concept and includes a wide range of access to quality financial products and services, including loans, deposit services, insurance, pensions and payment systems. Mechanisms for protecting the rights of consumers of financial products and services are also considered to be subject to financial inclusion. Financial inclusion acquires great importance during the pandemic and post-pandemic period. The economic crisis caused by the pandemic is particularly painful for low-income vulnerable population. A large part of the poor population who were working informally has lost source of income due to lockdown from the pandemic. Remittances have also been reduced / minimized, as the remitters had also lost jobs and are unable to send money home. Today, when people die from Coronavirus disease, it may be awkward to talk about the financial side of a pandemic, but the financial consequences can be far-reaching if steps are not taken today to ensure access to and inclusion of financial resources. The paper examines the impact of the pandemic on financial inclusion and the responses of the governments and the financial sectors to the challenge of ensuring the financial inclusion of the poor population and small and medium enterprises.
