This flyer provides a brief case study of the work of BancoSol, a microfinance institution in Bolivia, to advance gender-responsive financial inclusion. Since joining the WEPs in 2022, the institution has integrated gender equality as a whole-of-organization priority, working side-by-side with UN Women. The flyer showcases how BancoSol leveraged the WEPs framework, tools, and resources to establish clear goals, sensitize its managers and workforce, and transform its internal structure. These efforts resulted in the development of innovative financial solutions (e.g. a gender bond) and value-added services tailored specifically for women with important impact in society.
