BBVAMF Joins the Global Alliance to Finance Women Entrepreneurs

The BBVA Microfinance Foundation (BBVAMF) has joined the Women Entrepreneurs Finance Code (WE Finance Code) initiative, coordinated by We-Fi, a global alliance housed in the World Bank, which aims to boost financing for women-led or women-owned businesses. The BBVAMF serves more than 1.7 million vulnerable women entrepreneurs in five Latin American countries with financial services and initiatives specifically for them.

“We are thrilled to welcome the BBVA Microfinance Foundation to the WE Finance Code as a Global Signatory”, says Wendy Teleki, Head of the We-Fi Secretariat which coordinates the Code globally during the signing of the commitment. “BBVAMF’s deep commitment to empowering women entrepreneurs and fostering inclusive financial systems, particularly in Latin America, aligns perfectly with our mission at We-Fi. We look forward to seeing their progress in creating innovative financial products for women, especially by leveraging sex-disaggregated data, and in taking the lead on gender-inclusive finance.”
