FinTech is Opportunity that Uplifts
FinTech provides new ways for people to access life-changing services, which many other markets take for granted, such as banking and insurance. As a business-minded person why else, besides upliftment, should you take notice? Here are some positive predictions for Africa’s spending capacity and social improvement over the next decade.
FinTech is set to grow
to $3bn from $200mil
by 2020 in Sub-Saharan
Africa alone!
90% of farmers earn
less than $0.75 a day,
meaning most can’t afford bank accounts.
FinTech provides a new
way to access helpful
services in low-income
communities.
80% of people living
in Africa DON’T
have bank accounts.
52% of the world’s
mobile transactions
take place to and
from Africa.
40% of people who
have the opportunity
to access insurance
for the first time
are women.
57.6% of the
world’s mobile
money accounts
are registered in
Sub-Saharan Africa.
Africa’s working
population is expected
to surpass that of
China’s by 2025.
Consumer spend in
Africa’s 18 megacities
is predicted to reach
$1.3trn by 2030.
Only 0.4% of FinTech
