Through digital transformation and financial inclusion to reduce poverty in Latin America

As through the implementation of digital transformation in the country, as well as financial inclusion, how it could help to break the inequality gap and gradually decrease the poverty that exists in this region, since there will be more possibilities of obtaining a major number of credits at lower cost, bigger mobilization of resources driven by lower shipping costs and efficiency in waiting time, major possibilities of finding investors around the world, among other benefits.
As a sample we will use the Kenyan company M-PESA and all the benefits it has provided in Africa. We will talk about the benefits that this type of application could bring in Latin America, current players and the opportunities that are visualized in the short and medium term.
