Centre for Financial Accountability

CFA engages in critical analysis, monitoring and critique of the role of financial institutions – national and international, and their impact on development, human rights and the environment, amongst other areas.

CFA partners with civil society groups, social movements and community groups in trying to ensure that financial institutions are transparent and accountable to the people.

CFA’s work includes both research and programmes. We publish information resources and policy analysis. Its awareness programmes work towards demystifying finance through increasing public awareness and encouraging public debates about issues of financial accountability.
