The document summarizes Indonesia's efforts to promote financial inclusion and education. It outlines three objectives of Indonesia's Financial Services Authority (OJK): ensuring orderly financial sector activities, creating a sustainable financial sector, and protecting consumer/public interests. As the unified regulator, OJK aims to comprehensively monitor financial inclusion programs and supply, demand, and infrastructure through its role in education and consumer protection. The national strategy supports a literate society and increased financial product usage. Challenges include the need for long-term commitment from diverse stakeholders, significant research, technological developments, and regulators ensuring conducive policies that promote access while maintaining stability.

Three issues to achieve a financially
inclusive Asia
1. First is the quality of regulatory policies. Evidence is limited on which
policies work best in each country. These need to be verified to ensure
that policies are indeed addressing the right problems of financial access
in the country.
2. Second, it is also important to have a positive enabling environment for
promoting financial inclusion. Policies that support financial inclusion
have to be closely connected with the pursuit of macroeconomic stability.
Financial access is impossible without increasing the capacity of
individuals and firms to access higher income levels.
3. Third, greater financial inclusion is only possible if undertaken
responsibly. In as much as inclusion is about increasing the capability to
use financial services, it is crucial that those who are directly affected are
financially literate and capable.
