Financial Inclusion and Personalized Banking Through A.I. Challenge.

In Eastern European countries, there may still be a significant portion of the population that is underserved or unbanked due to barriers like poor credit history, lack of access to traditional banking, or regional economic disparities. Very likely Lat.Am. is facing similar or even worse conditions.

What are they looking for?

Use A.I. to build personalized banking services for underserved populations, focusing on better credit scoring models that use alternative data such as utility payments, digital behavior, to improve financial inclusion.

Develop A.I. driven platforms that provide financial advice and education, helping customers with no prior banking experience make informed decisions.

Innovate in microfinance solutions powered by A.I. that allow the bank to offer low cost, scalable, financial products to underserved regions, while mitigating risk.

Requirements.

All startups applying for this challenge must utilize E.U. based cloud databases for their solutions. This criterion ensures compliance with E.U. data protection regulations, specifically the General Data Protection Regulation (G.D.P.R.), which mandates that data processing occurs within the E.U. or in countries deemed to provide adequate protection. By adhering to this requirement, we aim to ensure the security and privacy of data handled in the context of the challenge while fostering trust and alignment with E.U. standards.
