Inclusive Fintech 50

Recognizing Early-Stage Fintechs Driving Financial Inclusion

IF50 identifies innovative fintechs that have potential to drive financial inclusion.

The goal of the Inclusive Fintech 50 (IF50) competition is to elevate cutting-edge emerging inclusive fintechs by identifying sectoral trends through research and outreach programs to highlight opportunities in early-stage startups that are driving financial inclusion and resilience. In four years of running a global competition, IF50 uncovered high-potential start-up fintechs addressing limitations in financial services delivery for unserved or underserved customers, helping them secure at least $620 million in additional funding. To better understand the impact of inclusive fintechs, CFI interviewed 12 fintechs that won the IF50 competition between 2019 and 2022. They shared their perspectives on the current macroeconomic and funding landscape and their actions to navigate the uncertainties.
