Driving Financial Inclusion in Latin America: How Inswitch Leads the Way.

‍Meeting LatAm’s Financial Inclusion Challenges.

In Latin America, financial exclusion remains a persistent challenge. According to the World Bank Global Findex Database, approximately 26% of adults in the region, representing around 122 million people, remain unbanked. While progress has been made, millions still lack access to essential tools such as savings accounts, credit, and digital payments (Mastercard Report). Addressing this gap requires more than technological advancements; it demands tailored, scalable solutions delivered by partners with local expertise and robust infrastructure. Inswitch leads this mission by providing API-driven, modular financial solutions designed to expand access and unlock opportunities for underserved communities.

Solving LatAm’s Financial Inclusion Challenges

Latin America’s diverse economic and geographic landscape creates complex challenges for financial inclusion. While 53% of adults in the region have a formal bank account, millions rely on informal financial networks or have limited access to digital payments, especially outside major urban centers (World Bank - Global Findex Database 2021). This gap leaves a significant portion of the population excluded from fully benefiting from modern financial services.

Inswitch directly addresses these challenges through adaptable, API-based solutions that enable financial services to reach even the most remote and underserved communities. Our offerings help enterprises and micro-merchants expand their services, whether by facilitating small business loans, managing high transaction volumes, or providing digital wallets to unbanked populations.

For example, in Brazil, Inswitch operates a network of over 100,000 cash collection points, allowing businesses and individuals in remote regions to perform secure transactions. This infrastructure ensures financial access is not limited to urban areas but extends to communities where traditional banking infrastructure is scarce.
