Abstract

We examine the impact of financial inclusion of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) on financial stability. Results show that financial inclusion of SMEs negatively affects stability in SSA countries, and the negative link is even stronger as levels of financial stability increase across countries. Our findings are consistent with the theory of excessive credit expansion or extreme financial inclusion theory, suggesting that to safely promote SME financial inclusion and foster financial sector stability, efforts should be directed toward improving banking sector risk mitigation efforts, financial sector supervision and strengthening coordination among regional financial sector regulators.
