SPTF, in conjunction with its Responsible Inclusive Finance (RIF) Working Group, developed a framework that maps countries’ regulation to responsible inclusive finance issues. The framework is designed to help networks and financial service providers better engage with regulators on RIF issues, as well as to identify examples of how regulators can integrate such issues into regulation. While we only have these resources in English, we have kept them in Word form so you can more easily use Google Translate:
