The World Savings and Retail Banking Institute (WSBI) and the Mastercard Foundation engaged GenesisAnalytics to conduct the end-term evaluation of the Scale2Save programme
The purpose of the evaluation was to provide lessons learnt against key learning questions of the programme related to the supply-side.:
- How does the institutional model affect the ability to offer low balance savings accounts (LBSAs)?
- What impact has the programme had on partner Financial Service Providers (FSPs)?
- How has the Scale2Save programme contributed to the ecosystem?
- What has been the value of partnerships in the delivery of LBSAs under the Scale2Save programme?
- What is the combination of supply-side and demand-side drivers that emerge for LBSAs?
- What factors impeded the ability of partner FSPs in the provision of LBSAs during the Scale2Save programme?
- What factors influence the sustainability of LBSAs developed under the Scale2Save programme
- Learnings from the evaluation will be used to inform future efforts of increasing demand and supply for low balance savings accounts and for broader ecosystem learning.
