According to the latest World Bank Global Findex data, approximately 1.7 billion people around the world do not have an account at a financial institution or through a mobile money provider. With more than half of unbanked people being women, the gender gap hinders them from gaining full independence in their lives.

In support of International Women’s Day, we have dedicated the 3^rd episode of the After Hours by RedCompass Labs Podcast to the topic of financial inclusion for women. We are very honoured to welcome our very special guest, Elisa Minischetti, Vice President in the Digital Transformation Division of MUFG Bank, whose passion for achieving social impact whilst ensuring commercial sustainability is will encourage you to join the conversation.

Listen to this special episode to learn more on the role of financial services in empowering women. Find out how technology is improving the economic and social conditions of those who would have been completely excluded from society otherwise.
