When we think of financial access, we often think of the ‘front door’ – the point-of-sale, the payment link, the app. But beyond that door is a complex ecosystem that powers every transaction, every transfer, every financial decision. In the past, fintech was a conduit, the pretty wrapper around payments. Today, the industry has become increasingly intertwined with the back-end operations that enable commerce, inclusion, and growth. Instead of just facilitating payments, fintech is becoming the infrastructure.
