The econometric method used for this purpose is that of double least squares it possible to identify and estimate an econometric a linear regression model with variables instrumental and solve the problem of endogeneity. Our stusy covers 42 countries in sub-saharan africa over the period from 1992 to 2018.The results of our research show that public debt is negatively correlated with both income inequalities in access to financial services in our sample. Thus, the public debt has a negative effect on inequalities in sub-saharan africa regarldless of the inequality indicator considered.From these two results , we recommend to the countries of subsaharan Africa that the most effective way to reduce inequalities is to control the level of public debt through adoption of fiscal Policy by promoting a progressive tax on social spending and promoting the financial integration of all.
