Financial abuse restricts a person's ability to acquire, use, and maintain financial resources, ensuring financial dependency on an abuser. It's often used as a control tactic by an abuser that ranges from sabotaging work opportunities to restricting access to credit or seizing funds and earnings. Financial abuse, like other forms of gender-based violence, stems from gender inequality and is reinforced by harmful traditional gender norms. This session will explore the relevance of financial abuse to the work of financial service providers (FSPs), the lessons learned from engaging FSPs in the United Kingdom and elsewhere on financial abuse and the development of a sector-wide financial abuse policy, and how these lessons can inform further research and practical actions FSPs can take to mitigate the risk of this issue. Anyone supporting or working for FSPs will find this session relevant and critical to their work.
