It looks like I'm wrong. Its more like 72 countries according WEF's 2020 report: https://www3.weforum.org/docs/WEF_GGGR_2020.pdf

Countries score a zero on that survey if "women do not have the same rights as men to open a bank account at a formal financial institution." The word "same" is doing an awful lot of heavy lifting there, and does not equate to your assertion that they're entirely unable to open accounts: for example, historically in Saudi they had to use separate bank branches run by women for women.

And oh, Western Union is more than happy to send your stack of filthy fiat to Palestine:
