2024 Digital Finance Hackathon and Conference Held
The second panel focused on how we can foster a responsible and trustworthy digital economy that benefits all, with particular attention to the impact of digital finance on inclusion and accessibility. The speakers responded to the following questions:
- What are the ethical considerations associated with digital finance, and how can we proactively address them?
- How can we ensure that advancements in digital finance benefit all and do not perpetuate existing inequalities?
- What do you see as the most important considerations when creating policies and regulations to promote a responsible digital economy?
To ensure that digital technologies are used for the common good, collaboration between industry, government and civil society is crucial.
Just because it's human doesn't mean it's good. Just because it's technology doesn't mean it's good either.” – Ms. Monique Morrow, President and Co-Founder, The Humanized Internet
I believe technology should be built for humanity and humanity should always be at the centre. So digitalization is the way forward and democratization in finance is the solution for it. We need to bridge this gap between the humans and digitalization.” – Dr. Marta Ra, Head of Business Development & Public Relations, Radicant Bank
