A report from the U.S. Department of the Treasury outlines a National Strategy for Financial Inclusion in the United States. It highlights the importance of promoting financial access, resilience, and well-being for all Americans, especially underserved communities. The report analyzes existing disparities in access to financial products and services across different demographic groups and proposes actionable recommendations to address these challenges. It focuses on five core objectives: promoting access to transaction accounts, increasing access to safe and affordable credit, expanding equitable access to savings and investments, improving the inclusivity of government-provided financial products and services, and fostering trust in the financial system by protecting consumers from illegal and predatory practices. The report calls for collaboration between government agencies, private sector institutions, and community organizations to achieve these objectives.
