About
Remittances as a whole are a vital part of financing in Latin America. Central America and Mexico typically receive remittances from the U.S., while South Americans are more likely to receive money elsewhere in South America or Spain.

This is the second webinar in a series on Remittances to Latin America. This time we focus on innovation and customer expectation after the crisis. We will discuss how customer expectations change when suddenly handling cash and running businesses in person become too risky. What opportunities bring the new digital transformation to a region like Latin America?
Agenda
  • Changes in customers expectations
  • The acceleration of the digital adoption
  • New partnerships
