The inaugural annual lecture on financial inclusion was held at the historic Nairobi National Museum on Tuesday 17th November. It was a storming success. The lecture delivered by Dr Tavneet Suri examined the mobile money revolution in Kenya, and asked, can the promise of financial inclusion for all Kenyans be fulfilled?

Among the key highlights of the year was the release of our Kenya Financial Diaries. This monumental study tracked the lives of 300 low income Kenyan households for over a year.
