The Digital Financial Services (DFS) sector is contributing significantly to the realization of countries’ objectives on financial inclusion through the development of digital savings and credit services. This case study highlights some key factors that can contribute to the development of responsible digital credit guidelines for regulators and DFS providers, based primarily on the Tanzanian digital credit experience.
