Abstract
Existing research has studied how institutions and organizational factors facilitate the process by which microfinance and other financial intermediaries tackle gender-based financial exclusion. But while the role of cultural institutions has been recognized as important, little research has systematically integrated culture in the study of gender-based financial exclusion. We study the role of language as a cultural institution that influences the extent to which financial intermediaries are successful in outreaching women and supporting female entrepreneurship.
