  • The fintech industry in Mexico is growing rapidly, with several startups and established companies offering innovative financial services due to the increasing use of mobile devices, and government efforts to promote financial inclusion.
    In this talk, we will discuss the role that Mexico’s National Research and Innovation Center for ICT (INFOTEC) is playing in the development of Open Technology as Digital Public Good. I will also share insights from our own experience in implementing our Banking CORE (based on MIFOS/Fineract) within government-owned financial institutions in Mexico.
    These institutions play an important role in promoting financial inclusion and supporting economic development.
    INFOTEC is a key contributor to Mexico’s Digital transformation and capacity building through the development of specialized talent and R&D. The Banking CORE is an open-source software platform that provides a range of financial services, including savings, loans, and payments. It is designed to be scalable and flexible, making it suitable for use by a wide range of financial institutions. In this talk we will discuss the implementation, architecture and present a demo of the technical part.
    In conclusion, we believe that open technology has the potential to play a significant role in promoting financial and digital inclusion in Mexico. Our Banking CORE is an example of how open technology can be used to improve the efficiency and accessibility without a multimillion-dollar price tag.
