The Bank of Zambia has granted permission to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and Financial Sector Deepening Zambia, through contractor Brandworx Limited, to conduct a nationwide geospatial mapping survey of financial service access points from September to November 2015. Researchers will physically geo-reference premises, capture photographs, and compile background data for commercial banks, non-bank financial institutions, and mobile money providers. The Bank requests full cooperation from all regulated entities to ensure the successful collection of this data, which will be made publicly available as updated maps to help stakeholders track portfolio growth and identify underserved markets.
