Good Agent Networks in Difficult Markets

FINCA International knows the pain and triumph of finding and developing effective agent networks in difficult markets. Across the Latin America and the Caribbean region, FINCA was faced with a decision: use existing agent networks or build its own. In the end, they did both.

During this webinar, the consultant for that project, Gerry Lanigan, will share insights into the essential features of successful agent networks and how to know which markets may require financial service provider-specific agent networks.

The innovation fund FINCA Forward supported the proof of concept for a unique liquidity management solution that provides e-float for one day as overdraft protection for agents. Josh Kirton, an Investment Director at FINCA, will present this exciting example from Tanzania that provided economic benefits to clients, agents, and financial service providers alike.
