Bank account access in the franc zone is below the sub-Saharan average.

Evidence

It should be noted that the rate of access to banking services – that is, the percentage of citizens over 15 who have a bank account – in the franc zone is among the lowest in the world, less than 10 per cent on average, compared to 24 per cent average in sub-Saharan Africa in 2011. — Fanny Pigeaud_ Ndongo Samba Sylla, Africa’s Last Colonial Currency, 310
