Nigeria\u2019s account ownership growth grew from 30 per cent to 45 per cent in the period under review.<\/p>\n<p>The bank disclosed this in its \u2018The Global Findex Database 2021: Financial Inclusion, Digital Payments, and Resilience in the Age of COVID-19,\u2019 report. It said the overall account ownership in developing economies grew by 30 percentage points, from 42 per cent in 2011 to 71 per cent in 2021\u2014a more than 70 per cent increase.<\/p>\n<p>It stated, \u201cIndividual economies saw different rates of growth over the past decade. Between 2011 and 2021, economies such as Peru, South Africa, and Uganda drove up the average with account ownership increases of 25 percentage points or more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUganda, in fact, saw its rate more than triple, from 20 per cent to 66 per cent. In India, account ownership more than doubled in the past decade, from 35 per cent in 2011 to 78 per cent in 2021. This outcome stemmed in part from an Indian government policy launched in 2014 that leveraged biometric identification cards to boost account ownership among unbanked adults.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOther economies saw much smaller increases over longer periods. Pakistan, for example, grew by just 10 percentage points over the past decade, from 10 per cent in 2011 to 21 per cent in 2021. The Arab Republic of Egypt and Nigeria increased ownership by 18 percentage points and 16 percentage points, respectively\u2014from 10 per cent to 27 per cent in Egypt, and from 30 per cent to 45 per cent in Nigeria.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Washington-based lender explained that account ownership is a fundamental measure of financial inclusion and is the gateway that allows men and women to use financial services in a way that facilitates development.<\/p>\n<p>It said owners of accounts\u2014whether those <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2022\/04\/25\/court-unfreezes-lawyers-18-bank-accounts-blocked-by-cbn\/\">accounts<\/a> are with a bank or regulated institution such as a credit union, microfinance institution, or mobile money service provider\u2014 were able to store, send, and receive money, enabling them to invest in health, education, and businesses.<\/p>\n<p>According to the lender, It is harder for account holders to slide into poverty because they can easily rely on savings or receive financial resources from friends or family in the event of a financial emergency.<\/p>\n<p>The global bank further said the growth in account ownership in Nigeria and other Sub-Saharan African nations was because of the adoption of mobile money.<\/p>\n<p>It stated, \u201cIn Sub-Saharan Africa in 2021, 55 per cent of adults had an account, including 33 per cent of adults who had a mobile money account\u2014the largest share of any region in the world and more than three times larger than the 10 per cent global average of mobile money account ownership.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSub-Saharan Africa is home to all 11 economies in which a larger share of adults only had a mobile money account rather than a bank or other financial institution account. The spread of mobile money accounts has created new opportunities to better serve women, poor people, and other groups who traditionally have been excluded from the formal financial system.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The World Bank has disclosed that the\u00a0number of Nigerians with accounts at regulated institutions such as a bank, credit union, microfinance institution, post office, or mobile money service provider, increased by 16 per cent to 45 per cent in 2021.
