Mexico is one of the first countries to create a regulatory law for Fintech startups. Thanks to that, more people give confidence to the sector, although some critics consider that it could also put a brake on innovation.
We can now find several startups that have consolidated in the market. Many of them offer an investment alternative in Mexico, outside traditional banks. Both savers and investors can find in them an option to obtain higher annual percentage yields or even become owners of companies.
These are some of the Fintech platforms focused on investment in Mexico. (Amounts are in Mexican pesos).
