How India's Digital Public Infrastructure Is Reshaping EM Finance

from The Emerging Markets Podcast with Fexingo: Developing Economies, Growth, and Investment · host Fexingo

In this episode of The Emerging Markets Podcast, Lucas and Luna explore how India's Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) — including Aadhaar, UPI, and the account aggregator framework — is transforming financial inclusion and creating a template for other emerging economies. They discuss how this infrastructure has enabled a 400 percent increase in digital payments since 2019, with UPI processing over 8 billion transactions per month in 2026. The hosts connect this to India's broader economic rise, noting that the INDA ETF is up 2.5 percent in the last five days. They also examine how Mexico and Nigeria are adopting similar models, and what this means for investors looking at emerging market fintech. A concrete episode about the infrastructure behind the growth numbers. #India #DigitalPublicInfrastructure #UPI #Aadhaar #FinancialInclusion #EmergingMarkets #Fintech #IndiaEconomy #INDA #DigitalPayments #AccountAggregator #Mexico #Nigeria #EMFinance #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #EmergingMarketsPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
