Abstract

This research investigates the role of financial inclusion in fostering economic empowerment in Sub-Saharan Africa. By analyzing data from 2010 to 2020, the study explores how access to financial services impacts economic opportunities. Our findings indicate that increased financial inclusion leads to greater economic empowerment, particularly for marginalized groups. The paper offers valuable insights for policymakers aiming to enhance financial access and support inclusive growth.
