Скачать или смотреть Union Budget 2026: Women’s World Banking seeks gender-wise RBI index to track financial gaps

Ahead of Union Budget 2026, Women’s World Banking has called on the government to introduce a gender-wise RBI index to better track financial inclusion gaps. The proposed index would help monitor access to banking, credit, and financial services among women, highlighting disparities and informing policy measures.

Experts say such a move could strengthen financial planning, support targeted interventions, and promote equitable economic growth. By creating measurable indicators for gender inclusion, policymakers would gain real-time insights into women’s participation in the financial ecosystem.

The initiative underscores the importance of bridging gender gaps in India’s banking and finance sectors, empowering women entrepreneurs, and ensuring that financial services reach underserved communities. Analysts note that a gender-specific RBI index could set a precedent for data-driven policymaking in inclusive development.
