Traditional legacy banks in Latin America operate as oligopolies, charging exorbitant monthly maintenance fees and demanding endless paperwork. Customers are forced to wait in hours-long physical lines just to open a basic account or resolve a simple issue, effectively excluding lower-income populations from the financial system.

This traps a massive demographic in a cycle where they cannot build credit because they are denied access to it.
