aviva

Aviva is building an AI-powered digital bank for Latin America’s underserved communities. While determined to fuel Latin America’s ongoing emergence of a new middle class with a fully-fledged portfolio of inclusive financial services, Aviva’s initial go-to-market concentrates on unsecured credit products for individuals and nano-businesses inMexico.As most of the underbanked 40+ million Mexicans live in small and medium-sized towns, Aviva builds a bridge to those living in remote communities with its physical onboarding kiosks. These nano-branches provide a documentless 3-minute video onboarding for everyone in need of liquidity. Novel AI-based technology, including natural language processing, allows Aviva to match customers’ spoken word to the fields of a comprehensive real-time credit application.
