Easy and convenient access to financial institutions and services is one major problem in the third World countries especially the developing and under-developed countries of the world.
Existing banking infrastructure is expensive and banking conglomerates typically makes their services unavailable to the poorest population or those in the remotes areas.
According to a popular survey about 20billion people around the world do not have access to financial services and most importantly access to credit.
This is so true because I live in a country populated by artisan and farmers who lives in the remote part of the country and they don’t have access to common banking system and even when they do, access to loan are scares or not even available at all.
There are three main problem attributed to the problem of access to credit which includes
• High cost of banking infrastructure.
• High cost of capital.
• Information asymmetry.
To solve these problems attributed to the financial institutions a company called SWAPY sprung up. Swapy is an open source project aiming to accomplish the mission of providing universal access to credit using the blockchain and decentralization. The swapy company envisions a world of efficient credit market with no barriers to entry for new players, where customers have the power and reap the benefits of universal Access to credit.
Swapy Network combines a decentralized protocol with a suite of three integrated applications. Swapy Exchange connects international investors from countries where the interest rates are lower to credit companies in countries where the interest rates are much higher. Swapy Financial ID empower individuals, giving them the right to a worldwide financial identity. Swapy DataMarket transforms user's financial data into value for the data owners. Now, individuals will hold their own data and choose how much tokens they receive in exchange for it when they want to share, and for whom.
