This webinar will look at how some of the world's leading e-commerce platforms serve as a gateway to new SME finance services. By having access to data on a merchant's daily transactions, e-commerce platforms can gain special insights into as well as the risks and opportunities for financing small businesses. The platforms also can serve as channels enabling new and improved financial products for this sector.
Join Mercado Libre (Latin America), Ant Financial (China), Jumia (Africa) and Kiu (SE Asia) for a presentation and discussion of their platforms, as well as the commonalities and differences between the four. IFC's Nuria Alino will share insights on IFC's experience with e-commerce platforms and SME financing.
