Overview

The region is renowned for its entrepreneurial spirit and leading innovation ecosystems, but the COVID-19 crisis has pushed consumers in cash-dependent nations like Argentina to move to formal online banking systems and wallet apps. The fintech boom is vital to improving financial inclusion among the most vulnerable populations in Latin America, and to fostering transparency and efficiency across financial systems.

Join YPA for a public, on-the-record interview on fintech in the region. 

Speakers:

  • Victoria Albanesi, Founder and Partner, Albanesi Tech & Legal Consulting
  • Pierpaolo Barbieri, Founder and CEO, Ualá @pbarbieri
  • Hanna Schiuma, Founder, bankHer, and Partner at PRACK Asset Management @HannaSchiuma
  • Jorgelina do Rosario, Editor, Bloomberg @jdorosario (moderator)
