A limited number of definitions have dominated academic and political discourse and poverty understanding over the last few decades.

Taking Action to Reduce Poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa
World Bank Technical Paper No. 356. The fragmentation in African financial markets and its persistence despite reforms to liberalize those markets have been difficult to explain.

The study concludes that financial development strategies, and World Bank operations supporting them, should explicitly include informal and semi-formal financial institutions to improve the extent and efficiency of financial intermediation in the medium term.
