San Salvador. The Peruvian Federation of Municipal Savings and Credit Banks (Fepcmac) and the Fedecrédito System, organize the second edition of the Microfinance Summit for Latin America and the Caribbean (Summic 2024, acronym in English) in the city of San Salvador, under the motto “ Reinventing Financial Inclusion in pursuit of a greater objective.”
Organizers of the event said that the event aims to explore and address crucial challenges in the current microfinance landscape.
The summit will take place from August 21 to 23, 2024 in a hotel in the capital and constitutes a space for dialogue and reflection on the challenges and opportunities faced by microfinance institutions in the region.
The Summic will address critical topics in the current context, such as cybersecurity and product development, user experience and risk management, the regulatory environment and corporate governance, as well as gender and green finance.
“There is no doubt that it will be an unprecedented event in our country that we are proud to be a part of,” commented Macario Armando Rosales Rosa, president and CEO of Fedecrédito.
The importance of these issues intensifies in the post-pandemic context and after significant natural phenomena, as microfinance institutions face the challenge of operating in an economy that demands innovation. This new environment highlights the need to implement more robust security measures and risk control systems.
The summit is consolidated as an international reference to promote best practices and innovative solutions in the field of microfinance.
Jorge Solís, president of Fepcmac, commented that “Summic El Salvador 2024 represents a unique opportunity to strengthen regional collaboration and jointly address current challenges by promoting the exchange of knowledge and best practices among industry leaders, thus contributing to the strengthening and adaptability of the microfinance sector”.
