Financial Inclusion for Scotland
@fininclusionscot.bsky.social
A group of Scotland’s leading policymakers and professionals from the private, charity and not-for-profit sectors who have come together to tackle financial exclusion.
A national strategy without legal accountability is merely lip service. With a #FairBankingAct in place, financial inclusion would become a right for everyone.

In Scotland, we’re seeing local innovation from #creditunions, #fintechs, and #communitylenders. However, true systemic change demands leadership and legislation across the UK.

Here’s what we advocate for:
✅ Mandatory standards ensuring access for all
✅ A universal right to a no-fee basic bank account
✅ Clear transparency on how banks serve vulnerable customers
✅ Accountability from regulators & institutions
✅ Products designed by those who truly know their needs

Because too many people across the UK still face hurdles when trying to access something as fundamental as a bank account or affordable credit. A financial system that works for only a select few holds us ALL back.
