The ethnic diversity-financial inclusion nexus remains one of the least explored topics in the literature despite global attempts to promote cultural mixing due to its socioeconomic benefits. We contribute to the literature by examining the link between ethnic diversity and financial inclusion using five-wave panel data from South Africa, a country noted for its diverse ethnic groups with unique knowledge stock. We measure financial inclusion using a multidimensional construct, while ethnic diversity is conceptualized using fractionalization and polarization indexes. After addressing endogeneity using various quasi-experimental techniques, we find that ethnic diversity increases financial inclusion, with men and urban residents experiencing higher beneficial impacts of ethnic diversity. Further analysis reveals that increased employment opportunities and social group membership serve as potential pathways via which ethnic diversity increases financial inclusion. Carefully designed policies aimed at promoting ethnic diversity will go a long way to boosting financial inclusion.

Social Welfare & Social Development in South Africa available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The White Paper for Social Welfare adopted by Parliament in 1997 provided a policy framework to shift social welfare from meeting the needs of a small minority to a social development perspective. This policy change has required the complete overhaul of th e current welfare system with far-reaching implications for human and financial resources policy and legislative reform in line with the new constitution and the Bill of Rights changes in institutional arrangements and trade-offs between different sectors and interests in society. In the past social work education was not developmentally orientated and tended to borrow uncritically from North American and European theory and practice. There was a lack of South African and African literature in the field of welfare and development. In addition to the need for the renewal of social work education in South Africa, there was also a need for the re-orientation of existing social workers to implement new welfare thinking and to app r a ise theory and practice critically.
