Guatemala is looking to accelerate its financial technology (fintech) sector development by studying the experiences of Chile. During the Volcano Innovation Summit, Herbert Schulz discussed how Guatemala can learn from Chile’s journey in building a robust fintech ecosystem. Chile reportedly took several years to establish its current fintech landscape, and Guatemala seeks to bypass some of those challenges through strategic learning. The discussion focused on what specific steps Guatemala can take to expedite its own financial transformation. This analysis of Chile’s progress aims to foster faster growth and innovation within Guatemala's emerging financial technology industry. The goal is to leverage lessons learned to create a more dynamic and inclusive financial system in Guatemala.
