Abstract
The economic growth and structural change currently taking place in sub-Saharan Africa relies on household enterprises to provide the main source of employment for the labour force. The financial sector will only contribute to inclusive growth if financial access can be extended to household enterprises. Promoting a more inclusive financial sector involves challenges for central banks in their role as regulators of the financial system.
