The Financial Inclusion Compass 2018 presents the findings of the inaugural e-MFP Survey of Financial Inclusion Trends, designed and implemented over spring and summer 2018. The survey was mixed methodology, asking for scoring of particular selected financial inclusion trends, their importance and direction of progress, and ratings of selected future Areas of Focus, as well as asking for qualitative responses on issues both granular and general – from the short to the long-term future. Respondents could choose to respond anonymously or with permission for their details to be included in the report and other publications. The survey was staggered, with a mandatory first part and several optional, qualitative questions beyond that.
