One FinTech Avenue

Educate . Innovate .  Accelerate
One FinTech Avenue aims to serve as the centre of activity for FinTech within T&T, as well as the Caribbean region. It is envisioned that the Centre will promote the ecosystem by hosting relevant infrastructure, businesses, and individuals, as well as promoting opportunities for engagement and interaction.

The Centre will serve as a holistic ecosystem by connecting and partnering with existing programmes hosted by other institutions to further nurture and mature FinTechs in the market and attract new FinTechs from abroad.

Programmes
One FinTech Avenue aims to facilitate a clear FinTech pipeline in T&T by operating under four programmes:

Acceleration Programme
To curate a collaborative environment for FinTechs with an onsite ecosystem.

Solutions Programme
To crowd-in investors, donors, and partners to facilitate financing opportunities that help FinTechs come to market. It aims to solve industry-wide constraints concerning financial inclusion, digital finance, and the broader financial sector transformation.

Policy Programme
To provide guidance to strengthen business plans/applications ahead of submission for licensing or seek regulatory certainty for the use of particular technologies. This programme works in close coordination with the Joint Regulatory Innovation Committee.

Research Programme
To conduct relevant surveys, questionnaires, and other related research activities to establish a source of evidence, insights, measurement, and evaluation to strengthen the activities of the Centre as well as generally advance digital finance and financial inclusion.
