Hi Mark, we're an independent body of experts from financial services, businesses, the charity sector, academia and parliamentarians from all major parties. All commissioners volunteer our time to help further financial inclusion in the UK.
We do receive funding from industry to commission academic research, run campaigns and hold events, all of which influence policymakers, politicians and industry to work more inclusively. You can read more about us and our work on our website: financialinclusioncommission.org.uk
