People’s Pension Announced as One of Two Winners of WWB’s Third Annual Fintech Innovation Challenge

People’s Pension Announced as One of Two Winners of WWB’s Third Annual Fintech Innovation Challenge. On Monday, we had our fingers crossed, hoping that we would have a bigger platform to tell the world how we ensure a better tomorrow for underserved and unbanked women by enabling them to save towards their retirement. Today, we are back and thrilled to announce that we emerged as one of two winners in the Women’s World Banking’s Third Fintech Innovation Challenge, which means we get to do so much more to drive women’s financial inclusion. The other winner for the day was Boost Capital. We were selected from four finalists out of a pool of applicants from 34 countries. As a winner, we will receive a slate of new prizes, including a customized UX design guidance session furnished by Visa Inc., an exclusive pitch meeting and a feedback session with Women’s World Banking Asset Management Team, four 1:1 leadership coaching and feedback sessions with one of Women’s World Banking’s executive coaches, and up to $4,000 to be applied towards the cost of any NYU School of Professional Studies continuing education courses or certificates. We have already won a one-year complimentary membership into Women’s World Banking’s Global Network, priority access to WWB’s Gender Assessment Methodology, which helps institutions become a brand and employer of choice for women, among other prizes. Announcing the winners, Mary Ellen Iskenderian, President and CEO of Women’s World Banking, said, “We are thrilled to recognize Boost Capital and People’s Pension Trust and their contribution towards women’s financial inclusion. Both companies clearly demonstrate the game-changing potential of Fintechs to advance women’s economic empowerment on a broader scale.” Speaking after the winner announcement, Saqib Nazir, CEO of People’s Pension, thanked the Women’s World Banking for the recognition and reiterated the company’s commitment to innovate through technology, behavioural science and artificial intelligence to meet the needs and expectations of our members.
