Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s Peric: “It is very expensive to be poor. Adequate digital financial services can help people escape poverty.”
I was very honored and excited for the work I do at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to be featured on Radio Finance, the publishing platform of the The Asian Banker.
