AI in Action: Latest Innovations for Transforming Microfinance

About

Building on last year’s session in Krakow, this panel explores how AI-driven, data-powered transformation is reshaping lending—its challenges, success stories, and opportunities. We’ll highlight cutting-edge AI innovations in loan processing, customer personalization, fraud detection, and risk assessment, providing actionable insights for MFIs.

Key themes include the role of Public Digital Infrastructure in expanding financial access, fostering interoperability, and streamlining operations, alongside the impact of an enabling regulatory environment in driving fintech innovation. We’ll also examine how ecosystems, partnerships, and network effects amplify AI’s potential in microfinance.

Join us to explore how AI is revolutionizing microfinance and advancing financial inclusion.
