Did you know that 30% of the population of the world is still unbanked? Meaning, 30% of the world’s population can’t easily get to a bank, let alone deposit a check, take cash out, or use any of the conveniences that help you pay for your life. And, on top of that 93% of bank closures happen in low-income areas. In this episode, I have an important conversation with Briana Marbury. Briana  serves as Executive Director of the Interledger Foundation, which aims to build access to financial pathways around the world. She brings 15 years of non-profit experience and leadership to the role, as well as a passion for promoting financial inclusion for all. She is dedicated to expanding the public’s understanding of how we can use technology’s immense potential to improve lives. You’ll learn what it means to be unbanked, how Briana thinks we can increase access to financial services, what role crypto plays in our society, why financial inclusion is critical for us all, and how her money story was shaped as a young woman who didn’t have many banking options.LinksInterledger FoundationBriana on LinkedInEpisode SponsorsGet started with Issuu today for FREE or if you sign up for a premium account you will get 50% off when you go to ISSUU.com/mymoney.Shopify is more than a store.
