The objective of this research is to examine financial inclusion, measured as tenure of financial services in Peru and, especially, its relationship with financial education. According to previous studies, there is a positive relationship between the proposed variables. At the same time, the theoretical literature suggests that financial education could be a factor that reduces transaction costs to encourage the ownership of financial services. For these reasons, the study analyzes this relationship in Peru using national representative information provided by the 2019 National Survey of Financial Capabilities of Peru’s Banking, Insurance and AFP Superintendency (SBS), in which the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Additionally, the OECD has provided similar surveys to government institutions in 40 other countries. Consequently, taking into consideration a set of socioeconomic variables, this study uses the financial education and financial inclusion indicators proposed by the OECD, which make it possible to analyze a broader spectrum of financial inclusion by offering information on the ownership of savings, payment, insurance, and credit financial services. Specifically, 3 financial inclusion variables are used within binary choice models to provide internationally comparable results. Finally, the results suggest that there is a positive relationship between financial education and the possession of the three types of financial services.
