  "abstract": "<p>Displacements due to conflict along the borders of the regions of Ethiopia together with recurring<br>\ndrought has left millions of the Ethiopian population requiring emergency food assistance.<br>\nEthiopia is also hosting hundreds of thousands of refugees from its neighbours. In collaboration<br>\nwith aid agencies, Ethiopia supports its vulnerable population in saving lives with food assistance<br>\nto empower women, transform areas affected by natural and man-made disasters and keep children<br>\nin school. Currently, Ethiopia is increasingly combining traditional food assistance with Cash-<br>\nBased Transfer (CBT). In CBT intervention, the role of Financial Service Providers (FSP) is<br>\nparamount to reach beneficiaries through cash benefit. Many research works were carried out on<br>\ncash intervention programmes in Ethiopia. However, much focus has not been given to assess the<br>\nextent to which the FSP in Ethiopia can support the cash benefit distribution. The financial sector<br>\nin Ethiopia is emerging and developing in terms of service offer coverage, competition, and<br>\ntechnological advancement.</p>",
