Ep. 20: From Fintech Innovator to Policy Accelerator: A Regulator’s Journey

In our 20th episode of The Making Finance Work for Women Podcast and as we approach Women’s History Month, we sit down with Inés, a powerhouse in digital finance, fintech regulation, and financial inclusion, to explore why women’s leadership is essential in shaping the future of financial systems. As the head of Innovation and Financial Inclusion at the Superintendency of Banks in the Dominican Republic, Inés brings cutting-edge insights into how digital transformation, open finance, and behavioral economics can drive inclusive financial ecosystems. We’ll discuss the challenges and opportunities in regulatory innovation, the role of women in decision-making for the fintech revolution, and how financial services can be designed to serve women better—not as an afterthought, but as a strategic imperative.   Join us as we unpack the intersection of leadership, technology, and financial empowerment, and why diverse leadership is the key to building a more inclusive financial future.
