April is Financial Literacy & Inclusion Month — and there’s no better time to dive deep into how fintech and financial services are evolving to meet the needs of all communities.

In this special episode of Fintech Talks, recorded during New York Fintech Week, host Laura Gibson-Lamothe is joined by:

Amanda Estiverne-Colas, Board Member of NAFLI and Founder of AG Advisors

Together, we explore:
✔️ The connection between financial literacy, inclusion, and real-world outcomes
✔️ How technology like embedded finance and earned wage access is expanding opportunity
✔️ The critical importance of trust — and how history shapes skepticism toward financial institutions
✔️ Why financial literacy education must be embedded early and tailored to real needs
✔️ Hope for the future: building solutions that reflect the communities we serve

If you're passionate about creating a more equitable financial future, this conversation is for you.
