5 The objective of the study was to analyze how the linkages among Financial inclusion , stability , integrity , and consumer Protection have been managed in the case of four existing policies (mandated agricultural credit, National Strategy for Microfinance, electronic money guidelines, and regulations for microbanking offices) and one policy to be implemented (draft regulations for pawnshops). The study includes the results of a visit from a Consultative Group to Assist the Poor (CGAP) team to the Philippines 11 20 August 2015 and a follow-up analysis covering developments through February study was conducted by a joint research team from CGAP and BSP. The team was led by Olga Tomilova and included Eric Duflos, Juan Carlos Izaguirre, and Myra Valenzuela (all CGAP), and Pia Roman Tayag, Rochelle Tomas, Mary Ann Cuevas, and Mynard Mojica (all BSP).

6 Overall guidance was provided by Timothy Lyman, Katharine Lauer, Stefan Staschen (all CGAP), and Nestor Espenilla (BSP).The team wishes to express its gratitude to BSP for its strong support and assistance during this visit, and to the wide range of stakeholders from government, private, and nonprofit sectors who contributed to the study through interviews. A complete list of persons interviewed is presented in Annex endorsement of this report was sought from any party, nor should any be inferred from participation in the consultative process by which it was inclusion , stability , integrity , and Protection : Observations and Lessons for the I-SIP Approach from the Philippines1. INTRODUCTION: THE I-SIP BackgroundFinancial-sector policy makers and inter-national standard-setting bodies (SSBs) have traditionally sought to create the conditions for Financial stability .

7 Over the past two decades increasingly more attention has been paid to Financial in-tegrity ( , preventing Financial crimes through, for example, anti- money laun-dering [AML] and combating the financ-ing of terrorism [CFT] programs) and Financial consumer Protection , particu-larly in the wake of the 2008 2009 glob-al Financial crisis. Financial inclusion a more recent addition to the list of core policy objectives for Financial -sector regulation and supervision has re-ceived increasing global recognition by the United Nations, G20 Leaders and Finance Ministers/Central Bank Gov-ernors, SSBs, and other global bodies. Moreover, Financial inclusion has found its way into country-level policy making. Relevant policy-making bodies in more than 50 countries around the world have committed to measurable targets for im-proving Financial inclusion domestically under the Maya Declaration, the Alliance for Financial inclusion s initiative to en-courage national commitments to finan-cial collaboration with many such actors, in 2011 CGAP embarked on a work stream aimed at understanding how policy mak-ing changes when Financial inclusion is added as a core objective and more specifically how the four policy objec-tives (I for Financial inclusion , S for finan-cial stability , I for Financial integrity , and P for Financial consumer Protection [I-SIP]) are linked and how policy makers can op-timize the linkages to minimize tradeoffs and other negative outcomes and to max-imize synergies.

8 This work stream builds the evidence base to implement a call by the G20 Finance Ministers and Cen-tral Bank Governors in their November 2012 communiqu for SSBs to provide guidance and engage with the G20 Glob-al Partnership for Financial inclusion (GPFI) to study the I-SIP original concept for the study was developed by Martin Alsop (United Kingdom Department for International Development [DFID]), Timothy Lyman (CGAP), and David Porteous (Bank-able Frontier Associates [BFA]). DFID, in its capacity as Co-Chair of the GPFI Subgroup focused on engagement with the SSBs, funded CGAP (a GPFI Imple-menting Partner) to conduct an initial research exercise in South Africa to in-form the work of the Subgroup. In 2012, CGAP carried out a pilot research exer-cise in South Africa to begin developing a framework to study I-SIP linkages in the context of country-level policy mak-ing, to gain deeper understanding on whether and how the I-SIP objectives can be mutually reinforcing, and ulti-mately to confirm that increased finan-cial inclusion can result in a positive (or at least no negative) effect on the other three objectives.

9 CGAP also sought to develop a methodology to help policy makers optimize the linkages in prac-tice. As a result of this work, CGAP for-mulated the I-SIP Approach to designing or adjusting Financial -sector policies that involves identifying, managing, and optimizing the linkages among the I-SIP 1 The Alliance for Financial inclusion is an international network of policy makers and regulators committed to promoting Financial inclusion . See GPFI was created in 2010 as an inclusive platform for all G20 countries, interested non-G20 countries, and relevant stake-holders to carry forward work on Financial inclusion , including implementation of the G20 Financial inclusion Action Plan ( ).

10 To guide policy makers on how to implement the I-SIP Approach more effectively, CGAP proposed a set of I-SIP Propositions (Box 1).3 To ad-vance the understanding of the linkages among the I-SIP objectives and to refine the I-SIP Approach, similar research exercises were undertaken in Pakistan (2013) and in Russia (2013 2014).

To optimize policy outcomes, policy makers should seek to identify and analyze the linkages among Financial inclusion , stability , integrity , and Protection (the I-SIP objectives) triggered by a given policy intervention (ideally, ex ante). Policy makers should manage these linkages over time proportionately to their observed effect (in the case of ex-post analysis) or expected impact (in the case of ex-ante analysis).
