When people can participate in the financial system, they are better able to start and expand businesses, invest in their children\u2019s education, and absorb financial shocks. Yet prior to 2011, little was known about the extent of financial inclusion and the degree to which such groups as the poor, women, and rural residents were excluded from formal financial systems. \n\nBy collecting detailed indicators about how adults around the world manage their day-to-day finances, the Global Findex allows policy makers, researchers, businesses, and development practitioners to track how the use of financial services has changed over time. The database can also be used to identify gaps in access to the formal financial system and design policies to expand financial inclusion.\r\n\r\nGeographic coverage\r\n---------------------------\r\n\r\nNational coverage\r\n\r\nUniverse\r\n---------------------------\r\n\r\nThe target population is the civilian, non-institutionalized population 15 years and above.\r\n\r\nKind of data\r\n---------------------------\r\n\r\nObservation data/ratings [obs]\r\n\r\nSampling procedure\r\n---------------------------\r\n\r\nThe indicators in the 2017 Global Findex database are drawn from survey data covering almost 150,000 people in 144 economies-representing more than 97 percent of the world's population (see Table A.1 of the Global Findex Database 2017 Report for a list of the economies included). The survey was carried out over the 2017 calendar year by Gallup, Inc., as part of its Gallup World Poll, which since 2005 has annually conducted surveys of approximately 1,000 people in each of more than 160 economies and in over 150 languages, using randomly selected, nationally representative samples. The target population is the entire civilian, noninstitutionalized population age 15 and above. Interview procedure Surveys are conducted face to face in economies where telephone coverage represents less than 80 percent of the population or where this is the customary methodology. In most economies the fieldwork is completed in two to four weeks.\n\nIn economies where face-to-face surveys are conducted, the first stage of sampling is the identification of primary sampling units. These units are stratified by population size, geography, or both, and clustering is achieved through one or more stages of sampling. Where population information is available, sample selection is based on probabilities proportional to population size; otherwise, simple random sampling is used. Random route procedures are used to select sampled households. Unless an outright refusal occurs, interviewers make up to three attempts to survey the sampled household. To increase the probability of contact and completion, attempts are made at different times of the day and, where possible, on different days. If an interview cannot be obtained at the initial sampled household, a simple substitution method is used. \n\nRespondents are randomly selected within the selected households. Each eligible household member is listed and the handheld survey device randomly selects the household member to be interviewed. For paper surveys, the Kish grid method is used to select the respondent. In economies where cultural restrictions dictate gender matching, respondents are randomly selected from among all eligible adults of the interviewer's gender.\n\nIn economies where telephone interviewing is employed, random digit dialing or a nationally representative list of phone numbers is used. In most economies where cell phone penetration is high, a dual sampling frame is used. Random selection of respondents is achieved by using either the latest birthday or household enumeration method. At least three attempts are made to reach a person in each household, spread over different days and times of day.\n\nThe sample size was 1000.\r\n\r\nMode of data collection\r\n---------------------------\r\n\r\nComputer Assisted Personal Interview [capi]\r\n\r\nResearch instrument\r\n---------------------------\r\n\r\nThe questionnaire was designed by the World Bank, in conjunction with a Technical Advisory Board composed of leading academics, practitioners, and policy makers in the field of financial inclusion. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and Gallup Inc. also provided valuable input. The questionnaire was piloted in multiple countries, using focus groups, cognitive interviews, and field testing. The questionnaire is available in more than 140 languages upon request.\n\nQuestions on cash on delivery, saving using an informal savings club or person outside the family, domestic remittances, and agricultural payments are only asked in developing economies and few other selected countries. The question on mobile money accounts was only asked in economies that were part of the Mobile Money for the Unbanked (MMU) database of the GSMA at the time the interviews were being held.\r\n\r\nSampling error estimates\r\n---------------------------\r\n\r\nEstimates of standard errors (which account for sampling error) vary by country and indicator.

The database can also be used to identify gaps in access to the formal financial system and design policies to expand financial inclusion.</span> </div> </div> <div class="mb-2 field field-study_desc.study_info.data_kind"> <div class="font-weight-bold field-title">Kind of Data</div> <div class="field-value"> <span><p>Observation data/ratings [obs]</p></span> </div> </div> </div><div class="field-section-container pb-3"><h2 class="field-section" id="study_description.version">Version</h2><div class="mb-2 field field-study_desc.version_statement.version_notes"> <div class="font-weight-bold field-title">Version Notes</div> <div class="field-value"> <span><p>This version differs from version 1 in that it includes one or both of the following additional variables from the questionnaire, that had been left out of version 1:</p> <ul> <li>fin48 “Has a national ID”</li> <li>mobileowner “Owns a mobile for personal calls”</li> </ul></span> </div> </div> </div><div class="field-section-container pb-3"><h2 class="field-section" id="study_desc1674579453273">Scope</h2><div class="mb-2 field field-study_desc.study_info.notes"> <div class="font-weight-bold field-title">Notes</div> <div class="field-value"> <span><p>The Global Findex database provides more than 200 indicators on topics such as account ownership, payments, saving, credit, and financial resilience.

The survey was carried out over the 2017 calendar year by Gallup, Inc., as part of its Gallup World Poll, which since 2005 has annually conducted surveys of approximately 1,000 people in each of more than 160 economies and in over 150 languages, using randomly selected, nationally representative samples. The target population is the entire civilian, noninstitutionalized population age 15 and above. Interview procedure Surveys are conducted face to face in economies where telephone coverage represents less than 80 percent of the population or where this is the customary methodology. In most economies the fieldwork is completed in two to four weeks.</p> <p>In economies where face-to-face surveys are conducted, the first stage of sampling is the identification of primary sampling units. These units are stratified by population size, geography, or both, and clustering is achieved through one or more stages of sampling. Where population information is available, sample selection is based on probabilities proportional to population size; otherwise, simple random sampling is used. Random route procedures are used to select sampled households. Unless an outright refusal occurs, interviewers make up to three attempts to survey the sampled household. To increase the probability of contact and completion, attempts are made at different times of the day and, where possible, on different days. If an interview cannot be obtained at the initial sampled household, a simple substitution method is used. </p> <p>Respondents are randomly selected within the selected households. Each eligible household member is listed and the handheld survey device randomly selects the household member to be interviewed. For paper surveys, the Kish grid method is used to select the respondent. In economies where cultural restrictions dictate gender matching, respondents are randomly selected from among all eligible adults of the interviewer's gender.</p> <p>In economies where telephone interviewing is employed, random digit dialing or a nationally representative list of phone numbers is used. In most economies where cell phone penetration is high, a dual sampling frame is used. Random selection of respondents is achieved by using either the latest birthday or household enumeration method. At least three attempts are made to reach a person in each household, spread over different days and times of day.</p> <p>The sample size was 1000.</p></span> </div> </div> <div class="mb-2 field field-study_desc.method.data_collection.weight"> <div class="font-weight-bold field-title">Weighting</div> <div class="field-value"> <span><p>Data weighting is used to ensure a nationally representative sample for each economy. Final weights consist of the base sampling weight, which corrects for unequal probability of selection based on household size, and the poststratification weight, which corrects for sampling and nonresponse error. Poststratification weights use economy-level population statistics on gender and age and, where reliable data are available, education or socioeconomic status.</p></span> </div> </div> </div><div class="field-section-container pb-3"><h2 class="field-section" id="study_desc1684332949622">Survey instrument</h2><div class="mb-2 field field-study_desc.method.data_collection.research_instrument"> <div class="font-weight-bold field-title">Questionnaires</div> <div class="field-value"> <span><p>The questionnaire was designed by the World Bank, in conjunction with a Technical Advisory Board composed of leading academics, practitioners, and policy makers in the field of financial inclusion.

The questionnaire is available in more than 140 languages upon request.</p> <p>Questions on cash on delivery, saving using an informal savings club or person outside the family, domestic remittances, and agricultural payments are only asked in developing economies and few other selected countries.
