Mozambique: Financial Consumer Protection and Financial Literacy Diagnostic Review and Implementation Support (2014 – 2015)

Categories:

The 2014 financial consumer protection diagnostic review was undertaken as part of the World Bank Financial Inclusion Support Framework (FISF) Program. The program provides for wide-ranging consumer protection and financial literacy activities that reflect the recommendations in the diagnostic reviews, while taking into account Mozambique’s priorities.

The review was based on the version of the World Bank’s Good Practices on Financial Consumer Protection, current at the time.
