Fintech Diversity Radar 2021

The fintech promise for an even recovery

Fintech will play a central role in the post-COVID economy in expanding access to financial services, to support those most affected in society and to create a more diverse and sustainable marketplace, with financial products that cater for all demographics, everywhere.

To realise the promise of fintech, we need data that is relevant, up to date and validated, combined with a transparent way in which to measure and monitor success.

We’re setting out to build the Fintech Diversity Radar – launching in 2021 – the world’s first global platform gathering progressive data on women in fintech to understand their impact and contribution to the digital economy.

We could not do this on our own, so we have gathered a powerful group of fintech and diversity experts to support us and lend their voice to our call for inclusion.
