To support this new orientation, we should develop new metrics for our work and for the sector that measure success towards these outcomes, and use these to design our interventions accordingly.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Progress towards these three focus areas will be no easy task.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Success will depend on strong collaboration among members of the financial inclusion community and other stakeholders\u2014perhaps more so now than ever before.\u00a0But as voices for sustainable development get louder, I am optimistic that the power of inclusive finance can be harnessed to achieve broad sustainable development goals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the past 15 years, there has been a deepening recognition of the foundational role that financial inclusion plays in sustainable financial and economic development\u2014be it among investors, the private sector, standard-setting bodies and multilateral development banks.
