Among others, present research in behavioral economics, psychometrics, big data analytics, virtual mapping and imaging technology are allowing us to understand the excluded: who and where they are, what they need, and how they want to be served.
The new information is opening up opportunities for new players, giving rise to exciting platforms and more efficient channels with the potential to positively “disrupt” the financial inclusion landscape. I am glad to note therefore that our summit will tackle new trends and technology that could catalyze a quantum leap in lowering financial exclusion levels around the world.
