Digital finance Start-up coaxes bank-shy Argentines to ditch cash Coronavirus lockdown helps Tencent-backed Buenos Aires Challenger Ualà grow rapidly MICHAEL STOTT AND BENEDICI MANDER BUENOS AIRES Argentina is one of the world's toughest environments for investors, yet some of the biggest names in technology, including Tencent and SoftBank, have placed their first bets there on a fintech start-up that is reporting explosive growth amid the coronavirus lockdown. Launched in Buenos Aires in 2017 with the aim of persuading citizens in the largely cash-based economy to transact digitally, Ualà says that it has issued more than 1.9m debit cards and is signing up almost 0.5 per cent of Argentina's 44m population every month. "What we expected to happen over years is now happening over weeks," said Pierpaolo Barbieri, the 32-year-old Harvard-educated founder of Ualà. "Since the beginning of the quarantine 35 days ago, we have issued almost 140,000 cards, which is doublé our regular monthly issuance." Mr Barbieri moved his employees from Ualà's hipster warehouse-style offìces in the Argentine capital to work from home 10 days before the government imposed a lockdown in March. But he has kept hiring, with 50 joiners during the quarantine, making a total of more than 300 employees. "We prepare laptops remotely and send them to homes so staff are onboarded digitally," he said. "I met our new head of internai comms today and I met her virtually." In Ualà's favour is Argentina's large proportion of unbanked citizens. According to the 2017 World Bank global Findex study, only 49 per cent of Argentines have a bank account. Most cite excessive cost or onerous paperwork as the main deterrents. Argentina's banks have also been slow to innovate and are not universally trusted after numerous financial crises. "Ualà and other fintechs in Argentina, such as MercadoPago and Brubank, clearly show that if you offer the client a simple digitai product, they will quickly accept it," said Lucas Llach, an economist and former vice-president at the centrai bank. "This is aglobal phenomenon but Argentina has some advantages, such as complete interoperability between fintechs and banks through a single instant-payments system for ali accounts." Mr Barbieri recognises that MercadoLibre, the Amazon-like online retail giant that owns MercadoPago, is his biggest rivai but insists that "our main competitor remains cash. Seventy- five per cent of transactions in Argentina are stili made in cash." Here the pandemie has helped Ualà. Argentines can no longer go out, withdraw cash and pay bills at a neighbourhood payment point. Ualà's digitai bill-payments service, which uses Western Union as a partner, has had a 300 per cent increase in transactions during the past month. Asia has the most relevant experience in fintech Challenger banking for Latin America and Ualà has benefited from the experience in China of its hacker, Tencent, which has persuaded citizens to drop cash for digitai payments. But Mr Barbieri said he was inspired most by Simple, a small US banking start-up founded in Oregon in 2009, which was then acquired by Spain's BBVA. "It was started well before the European digitai banks and it was just that - a simple checking account with a white card, very simple UI UX [user interface, user experience] and it appealed to anyone," he explained. Ualà is not licensed to hold deposits; it is regulated as a payment service provider and must place ali its customers' money on deposit at another bank. It makes personal loans and plans to expand lending but will do so by raising outside capital. An Ualà money market savings fund, run with a locai partner, has attracted 380,000 customers. Wouter Gort, a partner in Greyhound Capital, which invested early in Ualà, said PMI - Rassegna Stampa 08/05/2020 - 08/05/2020 4 08/05/2020 Pag. 6 La proprietà intellettuale è riconducibile alla fonte specificata in testa pagina. Il ritaglio stampa da intendersi per uso privato the start-up's lack of access to customer deposits was not a problem. "Their dose relationships with their client base enable Ualà to provide a better guide to lending decisions than the traditional banks," he said. "In our view, at this point in the industry, depth of relationship and understanding of clients is more important than having access to [cheap] capital like the incumbents." Julie Ruvolo, director of venture capital at the Association for Private Capital Investment in Latin America, said that fintech had attracted the largest share of venture capital investment in the continent for four of the past fìve years. "You have a lack of legacy banking infrastructure and a significant proportion of the population unbanked or underbanked," she said. "There is demand for enabling payments, digitai transactions and consumer lending." Ualà completed a $150m series C funding round in November and says it has enough cash to last for the next two years, with break-even expected in 2022. The company's latest valuation was about $900m, according to tech data group CB Insights and confirmed by a person familiar with the matter, but an initial public offering is not a near-term prospect. Although Mr Barbieri would not comment on international expansion plans, Ualà is said to be eyeing other underbanked countries in the region, such as Colombia, Perù or Mexico. Brazil already has the biggest number of fintech challengers in the region, including the world's most valuable digitai bank start-up, Nubank, and is thus a less attractive target. Challenges abound. Government regulations do not allow Ualà to receive salary, pension or state-benefit payments directly into accounts, so these must pass through an established bank. Argentina's precarious economie situation is another worry, with the government heading towards a default this month on $83bn of foreign debt. Mr Barbieri wrote a book in his twenties on Nazi economics and the Spanish civil war and is no stranger to daunting financial situations. He said: "Obviously a default would be negative but we focus on servicing our clients . I want ali those clients that the banks never wanted, and the resttoo."

Course Description and Objectives In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, and certainly in Latin America, that difference can be pretty extreme. Despite being a diverse region, rich in resources and human capital, many Latin American countries routinely rank near the bottom of the World Bank’s Annual Ease of Doing Business Index. Even so, in our increasingly globalized world, a working knowledge of Latin American economics, business norms, and etiquette is of increasing importance given the importance of the region to energy markets, logistical chains, tourism and agriculture. Likewise, as domestic economies in countries like Brazil, Mexico and Colombia adapt to the changing retail and service needs of growing middle classes, many American companies have come to see Latin America not just as a potential target for investment, but for expansion as well.

    TESINA DE GRADO Facultad de Ciencia Política y Relaciones Internacionales - Universidad Nacional de Rosario Carrera: Licenciatura en Relaciones Internacionales Título: “Percepciones sobre la política exterior. Los diarios que analizan el comportamiento internacional de Argentina”. Alumno: Bernardita Raya Saudejaud Director: Prof. Roberto Miranda Lugar y fecha: Rosario, 08 de marzo de 2021 Correo electrónico: [email protected] RESUMEN Este trabajo responde a la pregunta: ¿Cómo se construye la percepción externa de los principales medios gráficos de comunicación sobre las expectativas de política exterior del segundo mandato de Cristina Fernández de Kirchner y la presidencia de Mauricio Macri? Para esto, se analiza el contenido de los principales periódicos internacionales de Estados Unidos, España, Brasil y Gran Bretaña. Se parte de la hipótesis de que hay una percepción bastante homogénea en los diarios elegidos, y que éstos forman sus percepciones sobre los gobiernos en base a imágenes preexistentes, comparando sus discursos y expectativas con sus acciones concretas de política doméstica y exterior. Asimismo, se sostiene que el foco no está puesto en la política exterior, y que los medios no ubican a Argentina en la posición que ésta cree ocupar. ABSTRACT This report answers the question on how the external perception of the main news media about the foreign policy expectations on Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner’s second term and the Mauricio Macri’s presidency is constructed. In order to answer this question, this report analyzes the content of the most popular American, Spanish, Brazilian and British international newspapers. It is hypothesized that there is a fairly homogeneous perception in the selected newspapers, and that they create their concepts on governments based on pre-existing images, comparing their speeches and expectations with their concrete actions of domestic and foreign policy.

We hope that you will appreciate the vibrancy of Toronto and the warm congeniality of this magnicent international city as we gather to address the crucial questions that lie ahead of us. The conference, which is called “Human After All: Innovation, Disruption, Society,” will look at the economics of innovation from a variety of perspectives. We will explore innovation in relation to the structures in both the public and private sectors. We will investigate its role in creating and/or ameliorating inequality. And we will examine the potential for innovation to generate wondrous creations and ominous dangers. In addition, we are here to ask broader questions of the profession of economics. We need to envision maps of the economic process that ultimately lead to answers that address the issues of human development, nancial reform, environmental challenges, and corporate governance. We need to explore the implications of non-routine change, some of which is the very byproduct of the process of innovation.
