What challenges do unbanked individuals face?
Unbanked and underbanked individuals often struggle to obtain credit or loans due to the lack of basic financial infrastructure in their emerging markets. This situation makes it challenging for them to build a credit reputation, accumulate wealth, or grow their businesses, limiting their economic opportunities.
