As COVID-19 increased reliance on digital technologies in Latin America, interest in online financial services exploded. From 2018 to 2021, the region’s fintech industry doubled in size. Even so, nearly half of Latin Americans remain unbanked, impeding their ability to save, shop and grow their businesses.

As Latin America looks beyond the pandemic, the region’s fintech sector, from start-ups to behemoths, is turning its attention to the challenges and opportunities of financial inclusion. Goals include reducing the cost of remittances — perhaps through the use of cryptocurrencies, NFTs, and other blockchain adoptions — and offering technologies that appeal to individuals who have no ties to formal financial institutions, or to those who seek more efficient and transparent methods to conduct financial transactions.
