Digital Financial Services

Digital financial services are an essential part of our work. We empower financial institutions, FinTechs, regulators, and ecosystem players to harness the power of digital solutions, so they can reach underserved markets, improve operations, and deliver customer-centric solutions at scale. For more than two decades, we have designed, implemented, and validated digital financial services that are inclusive, responsible, and sustainable.

What we deliver

Innovations in digital products and channels

We combine human-centered design with deep customer insights to develop solutions in digital credit, savings, insurance, and payment customized to meet the needs of people from the low- and moderate-income segments. From embedded finance to mobile banking, we pilot, refine, and scale products with usability, trust, and affordability at the core.

Agent and mobile network ecosystems

We strengthen the last-mile delivery of financial services through robust agent networks, branchless banking models, and digital channels. We enhance agent recruitment and train, onboard, and monitor agents to ensure their long-term sustainability in partnership with mobile network operators and technology platforms.

Digital transformation and efficiency

We help institutions reimagine their core systems, automate processes, adopt paperless onboarding, integrate FinTech, and shore up the digital architecture needed for scale. The goal is operational efficiency, reduced cost of service, and reliable service delivery.

Policy, regulation, and responsible systems

Our engagement with central banks, regulators, and policy bodies shapes enabling environments for digital finance. This includes policy design, regulatory technology (RegTech and SupTech solutions), consumer protection standards, and frameworks to ensure transparency, fairness, and accountability.

Data-driven credit and risk models

We expand access to finance for potential borrowers through alternative data, inclusive credit scoring, and responsible risk frameworks. Our models incorporate explainability and bias checks to help lenders reach MSMEs, first-time borrowers, informal workers, and other underserved groups.

Capacity building and knowledge transfer

Through our Helix Institute of Digital Finance and in-country training programs, we build the capabilities of leaders, practitioners, and field agents. Our practical, context-rich sessions are designed for practical and lasting impact and cover digital finance strategy, agent network management, customer protection, and product innovation.
