Do you maybe have one or two examples for me , where fintechs or banks are doing better ?

And can fintechs or banks help people to live a longer life ?

It ’ s what that access enables : dreams and opportunities .

Grab in South East Asia . That ' s one of my fav and most used examples . They aren ' t pure fintech per se . Started as a ride hailing company , but added different financial services for their drivers and microentrepreneurs because they saw that they have unmet needs ( i . e . unbanked and no means to save , invest , get insurance , or borrow ). And what ’ s fascinating is not just about having access to service , or having an account . It ’ s what that access enables : dreams and opportunities .
