WB Global Findex Reviews Financial Inclusion in Iran

The World Banks' Global Findex 2021 shows that 90% of Iranians had accounts with financial institutions in 2021.
Financial inclusion is a cornerstone of development, and since 2011, the Global Findex Database has been the definitive source of data on ways in which adults around the world use financial services, from payments to savings and borrowing, and manage financial events such as a major expense or a loss of income.
