Digital Financial Services in an Ecosystem of Inclusion

The overall objective of this project is to create a digital financial solution focused on providing simple and flexible low-cost financial products (nano-credits and nano-insurance), and to create a payment ecosystem that allows unbanked people to manage all their money from their cell phones. Thus achieving visibility and being the first contact with the financial system. The purpose is to give people visibility, so that they can access formal financial products in an easy and fast way; with the objective of breaking cycles of poverty that in Colombia are accentuated through the so-called drop-by-drop credits or lenders, who have high interest rates, mostly 1% daily which equals a very high effective annual.
