Cloud-Native Fintech for Financial Inclusion: Bridging the Gap Between Technology and Society

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Cloud-native architectures are revolutionizing financial inclusion by bridging the technological gap between traditional banking systems and underserved populations. These solutions integrate microservices, blockchain-based identity verification, and AI-driven risk assessment to create accessible, secure, and scalable financial services. The implementation of digital banking platforms in rural India and peer-to-peer lending systems in Southeast Asia demonstrates the transformative potential of these technologies in expanding financial access. Through edge computing and advanced security frameworks, financial institutions are overcoming challenges related to network reliability and data protection while maintaining regulatory compliance. The convergence of emerging technologies with regulatory technology (RegTech) is shaping a future where financial services become increasingly accessible to previously unbanked populations.
