This is a cross-promoted event being produced by a New York Community Group: 'Disruptive Technologists'
This nonprofit supports the tech, innovation, and entrepreneurial ecosystems in New York City by connecting professional firms, think tanks and likeminded people with a passion for new technologies.
This session will cover 'Disrupting Finance'. The Unbanked and Underbanked in NYC
11% or 350,000 people in New York City are Unbanked (have no bank account) a further 22% or 700,000 people are Underbanked.
This lack of access to financial services for the most vulnerable encourages a cycle of poverty.
What are the reasons for being Unbanked or Underbanked, How can this be solved and What our our institutions doing right now?
“Bank transfers, e-wallets, cash-based payments, and other local payment methods have previously been called alternative payment methods. But they are no longer the alternative; they are the norm for most of the world.” - James Booth, Finance Monthly
