Ghost Stories #79: Fintech meets frontier markets - now on the JSE


Listen Later

Optasia is listing on the JSE, which means that South African investors will have the opportunity to invest in this exciting fintech business. With a proprietary platform and extensive relationships across numerous emerging and frontier markets, Optasia builds bridges between financial institutions and underbanked consumers seeking airtime credit and microfinance solutions.

To explain how the business works, Salvador Anglada (CEO, Optasia) joined me for this detailed discussion. We covered the core underlying model, the DNA of the business and the journey to scale, along with the importance of the relationships that have been built in this ecosystem. We also covered off the risks and opportunities for the group.

As always, remember to do your own research and to treat this podcast as being for informational purposes only. For more information on Optasia, visit the website here.
