1 FinScope Consumer Survey Botswana 2014 Introduction The government of Botswana in collaboration with the private sector are actively supporting growth and development of the financial sector. Financial inclusion has been identified as a key area of activity to promote economic growth hence the government remains committed to the implementation of the Financial Sector Development Strategy of In recent years the public and private sectors have undertaken significant steps aimed at ensuring financial inclusion initiatives that give people access to appropriate and affordable financial services. Examples of the products that are aimed at the disadvantaged and low-income segments of society includes mobile financial services and PosoCards an electronic smart card that replaced the coupon system used to pay government social benefit allowances. About FinScope FinScope Consumer surveys have been implemented in South Africa since 2002 and conducted in 21 countries (12 in SADC, non-sadc Africa and 4 in Asia). This allows for cross-country comparison and sharing of findings which are key in assisting on-going growth and strengthening the development of financial markets. While core FinScope indicators (which are used for trend analysis) remain largely unchanged, FinScope itself is a dynamic study. The survey content is evaluated to ensure that the most recent financial market trends are being addressed and taken into consideration. The FinScope survey also takes the local context into account by using the expertise of the Steering Committee (SC) during the questionnaire discussion and any other SC inputs into different milestones. Objectives Republic of Botswana The objectives of FinScope Botswana 2014 were: n To measure levels of financial inclusion (i.e. the proportion of the population using financial products and services formal and informal); n To describe the landscape of access (the types of products and services used by financially included individuals); n To identify the drivers of, and barriers to, the usage of financial products and services; n To compare survey results with the 2009 FinScope consumer in Botswana and to provide an assessment of changes and reasons thereof (including possible impacts of previous interventions to enhance access); and n To stimulate evidence-based dialogue that will ultimately lead to effective public and private sector interventions in order to increase and deepen financial inclusion. Partnering for a common purpose FinScope Botswana is designed to involve a range of stakeholders engaging in a comprehensive consultation process. This process has enriched the survey and the results contribute meaningfully to members who have a common interest in financial inclusion. The FinScope Consumer survey is an important component of the Making Access Possible (MAP) methodology as it is the demand tool that assists in determining the levels of financial access in a country. A Steering Committee chaired by the Bankers Association of Botswana was set up which comprised representatives from the Bankers Association of Botswana (co-funder), Statistics Botswana, Ministry of Finance and Development Planning, Non-Bank Financial Institutions Regulatory Authority, FinMark Trust and Consumer Watchdog Botswana. The research house participated in the SC meetings.

4 Financial inclusion Analytical framework Total adult population = 1 years and older in Botswana Financially included = adults who have/use financial products and/or services formal and/or informal Financially excluded = do not have/use any financial products and/or services neither formal nor informal Formally served = have/use financial products and/or services provided by a formal financial institution (bank and/or non-bank). A formal financial institution is governed by a legal precedent of any kind and bound by legally recognised rules ly served = have/use financial products and/or services which are not regulated and operate without legal governance that would be recognised, e.g. Motshelo, Burial society, Matshonisa Banked = have/use financial products/services provided by a bank, regulated by the Regulatory Authorities of Botswana Served by other formal financial institutions = have/use financial products/services provided by other regulated (non-bank) financial institutions, e.g. a loan by a microfinance institution or insurance products, PosoCards, mobile money, etc. 4

FinMark Trust s purpose is Making financial markets work for the poor, by promoting financial inclusion and regional financial integration. This is done by promoting and supporting financial inclusion, regional financial integration, as well as institutional and organisational development, in order to increase access to financial services for the un-served and under-served. In order to achieve this, FinMark Trust commissions research to identify the systemic constraints that prevent financial markets from reaching out to these consumers and by advocating for change on the basis of research findings. Thus, FinMark Trust developed the FinScope tool, including both the FinScope MSME Survey and the FinScope Consumer Survey. Published: July 201
