To kick off 2025, weâre placing a focus on âfintech for goodâ to find out exactly how much impact fintechs are having societally â both positively and negatively.
Often, when we cover âfintech for goodâ, itâs all about the fintechs and financial initiatives that look to do more than just help it turn a profit. There is a wealth of fintechs looking to support diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), or doing good for the environment.
