The three-day G20 meeting on ‘Global Partnership for Financial Inclusion’ concluded in Kolkata.
It had a discussion on several issues, including digital financial inclusion, remittances and availability of finance for small and medium-sized enterprises.
G-20 leaders focused on the high remittance cost for workers outside India.
Efforts are underway to bring the rate down to an average of 3 per cent by 2027.
At present, the remittance cost, on average, stands at around 6 per cent of each transaction.
