Headline financial inclusion indicators from the FinScope Rwanda household survey series, commissioned by Access to Finance Rwanda (AFR) and NISR. Five survey waves are represented: 2008, 2012, 2016, 2020, and 2024. The NISR portal lists a "2013" publication separately, but its text explicitly references the FinScope Rwanda 2012 survey; it is the full-length main report of the 2012 fieldwork and carries the same data, so year=2012 is used. Survey cadence is irregular (next wave expected approximately 2027-2028). Indicators track the share of Rwandan adults with access to any financial product (overall), formal financial products, bank accounts, mobile money, and those completely excluded from financial services. All values are percentages of the surveyed adult population. Published as PDF reports only - no machine-readable Excel or CSV is available. Verified headline figures are stored directly in the pipeline; PDF extraction is used only for new future waves.
