Abstract

This research paper examines the impact of financial inclusion on the economic growth of developing nations, with a focus on Bangladesh. It reviews existing literature and develops hypotheses related to savings, capital mobilization, entrepreneurship, poverty alleviation, financial stability, and formalization of the economy. The paper presents a conceptual framework illustrating the pathways between financial inclusion and economic growth indicators. Data analysis shows a positive correlation between financial inclusion and GDP growth, as well as a link to poverty reduction. The paper concludes with policy implications for promoting financial inclusion in Bangladesh.
