Our Impact

118 Million Women and Counting

As of Q1 2026, we have reached over 118 million women in emerging markets through our programs, helping to change not only their lives but the lives of their households, communities, and businesses.over

What do we mean by reached?

Women’s World Banking uses the term “reached” to describe any woman who can benefit from our programs to enhance financial inclusion, defined as giving women the choice to access and capability to use financial services. This includes:

  • Women who have access to new or enhanced products or services, delivered directly in partnership with financial services providers.
  • Women projected to benefit from products, services, or policies that deepen their financial inclusion, through investment and influence with financial services providers and policymakers.
